Leadfingers: What RAF regulation says that your beard has to be 10 years younger? Seems a little harsh.... *g*

Willie-O: The aforementioned 'Fireball' was my ex-husband. Not 10 minutes after the wedding, a barbeque grill exploded (compressed gas or something) and took a mighty chunk outta my man. We spent the reception at the emergency room. Funniest thing was that my sister had given us matching "I Married Stupid" t-shirts, and I was still wearing mine at the hospital. Nurse asks "Oh, how sweet, how long have you been married?" I am bawling and say "Oh, about five minutes". He lived, though blistered, smelled like burnt hair for weeks, and he has a really cute scar where his wedding ring melted to his finger (he says other guys may claim to have been scarred by marriage, he has proof!) And yes, the wedding pictures are hilarious...

Re: Kenny Rogers? I didn't mention the Silkie Song, but truth be told, when we got off the lift and I shouted across the mountain-top to my father that I'd just gone up the lift with "the Gambler"---that boy was off like a shot. Apparently he took issue with my swinging the lift chair, and calling out during choruses: "Okay, everybody on the right side of the mountain.....Left side....C'mon bunny slope, you can do better than that....Ya picked a fiiiine tiiiiime to leeeeeave meeeee Looooooceeeeeeeel...."

If any of this comes up at the committment hearing, I'll only deny it.
