    Re: My wife may murder me!

    Take the long view and put it in perspective. I don't drink, smoke, gamble, have a weekend sport I watch, or many other things that tend to drive wives insane. We all have a list of these "good" traits. I don't mention that, but I'm sure she gets its. So other good behavior offsets this addiction, it's probably manageable. If you are drunk all the time, do meth, and frequent the local brothel, you maybe need to cut back on the car care products.

    More importantly, I take care of her car. She loves the way her car looks and all her co-workers ask her how it can look so good all the time.

    About a year ago she came home once panicking about a scratch in her door. She was positive it was going to the body shop. It looked bad to me and was beyond my experience level. I decided to take a chance and polish it. About 30 minutes later it was completely gone. (Note that I wouldn't want to measure the the remaining thickness on her clear coat in that spot.) If you can pull off something like that, you're likely golden.

    RE: “Thirty Days In The Hole”

    [Below excerpts taken from:
    ”Somebody Up There Likes Me”;
    (ca.1956); a movie based on Rocky
    Graziano's autobiography.]

    ******************************

    ”Well, if you ever need quick money,
    just look me up at Stillman's Gym.
    - Ask for Frankie Peppo, that's me.
    - Yeah, Rocky Barbella.
    - I'm pleased to meet you.
    - No, that's my pleasure.”

    little punks at the reform school.
    Well, this is no reform school.
    We run a good penitentiary here,
    and a tough one.

    You pull here what you pulled up there...
    and our men would just as soon
    put a bullet through your head as not.

    -Now, you got that straight?
    -Yes, sir.
    -You don't believe that, do you?

    Thirty days in the hole.
    Let him spit in the dark.”

    Re: My wife may murder me!

    The key is to not keep everything on the same shelf. It is easy to walk by and tell the amount of stuff of the shelf grew. Or I don't remember there being wax on the third shelf just the top two. When you have a little here, a little in the basement, a little over there, it's hard to keep track of how much stuff there really is.
