I'll Have The Misogyny Au Gratin, Please
by Steve West on April 15, 2008
We were having dinner with my nephew the other night and the conversation steered toward his numerous relationships.
He replied with that standard chauvinistic response, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?"
My wife looked at him directly and retorted, "Yeah, why buy the whole pig for just a little sausage?"
My nephew stammered, "Exactly! I agree. Wait a minute..."
That's my girl.

Sweet! :) I mean, obviously if she married you, she had to have a sense of humor, but a quick wit too? ;)
I kid, of course. I like the new photo, by the way. Makes you look wise and contemplative! :)

Loud, Louder, Standing Next To A Jet Engine
A few nights ago, Brenda and I took the girls to Baltimore for a follow-up appointment for Olivia at Johns Hopkins Medical Center. She is treated at their Epilepsy clinic because of seizures. The appointment went well enough that we decided to take advantage of being in Baltimore by having dinner at the Hard Rock Café there. Go »Hair's The Thing
I just got back from getting a haircut. I sat in the chair at a local salon and reminisced about my childhood and accompanying my father to his weekly hair trimmings. We went to a pretty old-fashioned Mayberry barbershop in suburban DC that was the Italian version of Floyd's. Go »The Long and Winding Road
I've led my life with few regrets but those few have been big ones. I've posted a bit about my divorce but not about the reasons behind it. I'm not going to now either but I will say that Betsy deserved better at that time. Go »Kinderfest
Brenda and I were going to take the girls sailing but there was rain in the forecast so we decided to put it off for a week. Rainy combined with slightly chilly (60 degrees) doesn't make for a good time outside of Wasilla. So we decided to go to Kinderfest at a local regional park. Go »Driftwood
Washed up on the shores of my PC. In the spirit of Monty Python & The Holy Grail intro, "Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked," comes this notice. Beautiful pictures of a fairly clever notion, holding the sun. Go »

Tell your wife to keep 'em coming, Steve -- I could use some good old-fashioned... misandry???
Ha... well, whatever it's called, that was definitely a good one. ;-)
