It is my wife’s birthday today and all I can talk about is some basketball players ankle.

Yup today is shaping up as a doozy!

As I tell my wife all the time if she complains about my sports obsession and how it gets in the way of our lives, "You knew exactly what you were getting into. I didn't hide it at all in the 4 years before our wedding. So you can't complain." And then she doesn't.

There is an Arab saying that you should beat your wife every day. If you don't know what for, she does.

Along those lines, but completely different, every morning, when you wake up, tell your wife "I thought about it last night, and you were right!"

If you don't know what for, she does!

Now, I have messed up quite a lot and have had to say, "I messed up."

But in this case, my expensive non-returnable ("useless") Christmas present required this Calhoun beauty:

That’s great! I like your use a line from White Men Can’t Jump…I too once was thirsty.
