OT Humor: What is Celibacy?

It's important also to understand their interests and limitations. For example, I'm not psychic, as much she herself is clairvoyant. And it's slowly dawning on me that she really can't, not won't, maintain a 4 mph pace uphill with a 60 lb pack on her back. BTW, some folks play chess or cards for companionship rather than bloodsport.

Maybe next time you go hiking, _you_ should carry that 60 pound back- pack.

now wouldn't that kinda defeat the porpose of haveing her along? :-}

I don't know where you pack, or how long you stay out, but when my wife and I go out for a weekend trip we typically carry no more than about twenty pounds each. I'd call a 60-pound load a two-week trip load.

======== You should've heard her holler when she won our race up the slip face of Mt Baldy. That was more'n 20 years ago; we're not such a bad match. As for the real or mythical "Ann" in the story, she chose her life partner poorly. "Walter" also, for marrying an incompatible sense of humor.

This has to be your very best one in many moons...

excellent...kudos...bravo....I love it.

For my wife, until very recently, 60 lbs was just a weekend jaunt, even if we were staying in a hotel!. A 2 week trip to the east coast with 4 adults in a PT cruiser fixed THAT!!!!!!

Lots of water.

I think Walter was being serious.

How many of us can maintain a 4 mph pace on level pavement with our running shoes on? That's a pretty stiff pace.
