I see at least one woman each day that could be worth giving up 1/2 of my stuff.

I really don't have that much stuff anyway.


What I do have is a happy and blessed marriage. I pray it stays that way.

Perv, I was devastated at the thought of losing half my stuff. It took me awhile, but I came to realize that "stuff" isn't all that important and losing half of it was a cheap price to pay for being happy. If you are as miserable as you claim, I don't know what to say.

Wow dude!! I'm tippin a Beer to you right now ... it aint much, but its all I got for that!!

Q: What do divorces and hurricanes (both here in Texas) have in common?

A: Somebody's fixin' to lose a trailer house.



Q: Why is divorce so expensive?

A: Because it's worth it.

There is something to be said for having someone you trust completely in the foxhole with you as you go through life.

if you're that materialistic, then you deserve what you have
what makes you think that your wife even wants any of your shit??
maybe she stays with you because she doesn't want to give you half her shit

15 years on the job and the "D-word" doesn't enter our marital vocabulary, either.
