Default RJ....

Good suggestion, just like Cadet's: "Stool".

Still, I would also suggest killing two birds with one stone,
such as easily getting dressed every morning while
simultaneously helping-out some young college girl
through college by giving her a partime job rolling your
socks up everyday,...and whatever else needs rolling up.

Whatever, don't tell the wife about such an arrangement.
Some are just bad sports about such things, and
will probably think the worst of you,...merely for
trying to be friendly and patronisingly helpful towards
some gorgeous and voluptuous (of course))
young girl's advanced education.

Some wives just have no trust.
Go figure???

My best hint is to stay active and keep learning about anything and everything. Don't carry negative thoughts - try to think positive its a good practice I've been trying to use everyday.

That part about the part-time job hit home....I decided
to help the wife with the house work by hiring someone
to come in one day a week The only person qualified was this
cute blonde college student (technically, they all qualified but....)
well My wife met her after a few months (she's a nurse)which went over like mothers day at an orphanage. It was sad but we had to let her go

Default So, Bobk

.... tell us, just how long did it take for all those bruises and lumps to heal? Bet your bride treated you like the illegitimate child at the family reunion...

Hint #2: avoid sitting on hard surfaces, such as wooden chairs, as that type of surface makes it extremely difficult to fart without drawing unnecessary attention to yourself.

No bruises or lumps......I guess I didnt understand my wife's way of thinking.....I hired this girl for her ability to clean house, not her looks.
and I know Ya'll believe me.
