From: Scotty on 30 Jun 2010 05:08 THE BROKEN LAWN MOWER: When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.. But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the shed, the Ute, making beer.. Always something more important to me. Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house.. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush. I said, 'When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway.' The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.

Aye,.it is true the gentle missus' do have a way about them. No request from them is ever knocked back,..delayed, made conditional or scheduled,..but never totally denied. That is their power. :-) Jason
