A new, undocumented feature!

I told my wife about this post. I made it a joke, saying "Aren't you glad I don't listen to THEM!" Her reply was, "None of them must be married to someone like me."

Speaking as a 65 year old married more than 30 years: The word 'marriage' begins with the letter "C".

'C' for compromise, consideration, etc.

45$ won't make a dent in saving for a house. But sending the check without telling her will make a big dent in your relationship.

Elowan, Well said!

Folks:
I realize most of the ideas were meant in jest;
In many a thread I have mentioned the "5th X" in SE. eX wife. While playing SE far too much was a symptom not a cause....

Assuming I con my wife into parting with extra money that should be going into our new house.

Is the rebate offer still available and does Shrapnel still have Gold back in stock yet?

Baron, if you are considering buying Gold with the idea of playing in the tourney, you are too late. It's going to start in a couple days and you won't get it by then.

But there are always games starting on PBW, and there's always Survivor 3.

Of course, you could do what I did... Teach her to play! (It helps if you married the right woman.)

Of course, I had to fork over for a second computer....
