The wife just called and is spending $2000 to get a number of her favorite old silver pieces replated. Why am I happy you ask? Those of you that dont know, my belief is that the way to a harmoinous marriage, (34 years and counting), is an open agreement on the purchase of cigars. The ratio is two to one. She gets to spend two dollars for every one I spend on cigars. The wonderful side benefit is this deal works both ways.

My Pepin count, (as well as some others), is about to go up subtantially.
