Bab,
I have to agree. Custer famously said "Tom should have been the General" -- but I think he got that wrong. Libbie should have been.
Brilliant woman.

Bab darlin'- "...anyone who has been married for awhile knows that the slightest inclination of a "dalliance" in a marriage only serves to spark an ember which has been allowed to simmer!..."
You sly little devil! Gotta love you too! Often true, but not always...
If my 1st ex had ever thought I was 'messing around,' EVERYONE would have heard her screaming, (while standing over my rapidly cooling body) "Somebody show me how to re-load this damn thing!" I was forewarned about marrying a black-haired, green-eyed, firey little five-feet tall Cajun, so I would have had no redress in the matter.
BUT - for some, the sweetest times of intimacy come as a part of the act of forgiveness. Just an observation. I have no personal experience with it.
Wish I could send the rest of the snow your way. I have plenty here now, and it has gotten deep enough to form a solid blanket of Christmas card quality. Its projected to continue for another 6 hours or so here, but the system seems to be moving northward. Not sure just where in NC you are located, but don't give up unless you're near the coast. You just never can tell sometimes.

You shoul do like the guy in Quebec, who, when the pile in front of his garage reached what looks like about ten or twelve feet, auctioned it off on Ebay. It actually sold - for about 9000 bucks, I think, and the family that purchased it turned around and sold shovels full and garbage cams full to assist a local charity.
Last I heard, sales were brisk, and the charity folk were all smiles. Talk about selling refrigerators to Eskimos - how about auctioning off a snowpile to folks who are already up to their hindquarters in the stuff, and then them re-selling it to others in the same boat!!!!
Reminds me of the cannabis trade [I've been told] from the 60s and 70s where everybody was a dealer and kept cutting their stashes into smaller portions for resale until they became so small that they disappeared, and stoners were paying 20 dollars for empty baggies.
Gordie MC missed cannabis......................
