Doug,
If things start to fall apart....Just remember: You can sleep in your glider...but you can't fly your house!!!! Dave "Doug Snyder" wrote in message oups.com... I was prepared for the insurance, the hangar rent for the trailer, the new relief system, etc. I must admit that I was not prepared for the new solid surface counter tops, the new diswasher, the new stove, and the new flooring. Why didn't you all warn of the reciprocal spending by my spouse ? Chagrined, Doug The real insult is that I could have flown today had I not been shopping for all of the above. What the hell... It's still worth it! |

All of you dudes have the wrong interpretation of the problem. The first
thing that needs to be done is get rid of the problem. If she complains out loud, show her the road. "David Norinsky" wrote in message . com...

A wise man once said, "No matter how good she looks, or how hot she is,
or how much you might think you want her... some guy, somewhere is tired of her s__t!" My Pik-20 never talks back... and wasn't all that expensive. Jack Womack |

No ad hominem comment on Bob Fidler, yet Bob Fidler
speaks not as not a divorced man or not as a divorced man taken heavily. I reflect upon his well considered comment. He said, 'All of you dudes have the wrong interpretation of the problem. The first thing that needs to be done is get rid of the problem. If she complains out loud, show her the road.' Seemingly, this presumes one is not married. Whereupon said words may be said easily. For otherwise, if married, he would know that he showing her the road or she showing him the road, she would have him pave it with gold to her immense and innumerable benefit; and she would not give up with the thickness of that gold paving layer as court ordered, for she comes again with motions 'due to substantial changes in circumstance and fact' , etc. Moreover, she would steal the child or children thru her attorneys asserting Ex Parte fathers malevolence, insanity, psychopathology, etc et al irrespective of his fidelity, fine parenting, and devotion to her and love and steadfastness to the child or children. She would continue on with Mo Money, ibidem, opero citate, hep me Judge, I am so grieved and in danger and threatened, and he is terrible, mean, plotting, old, and has money...etc etc etc. Yes, compared to female Americans, airplanes. gliders, rockets, helicopters, other flying machines are simple, comparatively predictable, kind, straightforward, and not dangerous by comparison to females. Stick with them, those things that fly and glide, those that blow fire or exhaust, grind the air, spin rotors, make laminar flow sometimes across their wings, but make no vow with with those things that leak monthly or formerly did so monthly, and one shall be glad that the inanimate type of thing whereunto he sticks is the most rewarding place to stick. Sexual intercourse, indeed man can do without. Flying I cannot do without. There is no free lunch. No, she is not different from the others despite assurances to the contrary made to bring one to the marriage and to the pendular cleaver and chopping block of marital law. One is much more fulfilling and less dangerous than the other. You should know which. Fly. Dancing on clouds, Keep it up! Be of good heart. Jim Culp USA Asw-20C GatorCity Florida |

Yes, backwards is right. Buying a new kitchen first is far and away
the best leverage plan. It comes down to the person who buys first, can't complain. I did it backwards. I now have a used glider but new hardwood floors, new mantle, new 13' entertainment center and (later this year) a new kitchen. Then again we must understand that (depending on the glider) the asset can gain in value if you don't count the recurring costs of tie downs, winter storage, insurance, annuals, contests, etc, etc, etc. OK, maybe we just shouldn't do there either. |
