the miracle of toilet paper

I'm willing to perform an experiment on any volunteer. I'll even provide the Puffs. My hypothesis is that it will not have the state effect on a woman, but will have an indirect and pronounced effect on a man.

MrsChad...your comments about playing cards brought to mind that Kathy and I played cards for many years with my sister and her husband. Guys agains girls. At one point, the girls were so hungry to beat us at the game that we changed the rules. Any time they looked at their cards, didn't like what they saw, we would simply switch hands with them and continue to play. In the end, the results were virtually the same...the guys won 66% of the time.

We kept track of all games played over the years at our dining room table by putting tick marks under our dining room table for each win. When the table was sold at our auction in 1997, we showed the buyer our lifelong scorecard (more than 20 years). She promised to keep it in place once she bought it. In fact, she sent us a picture of it in her own dining room!

Enough about cards....back to Ed's Puffs!

That is an awesome story Steve. How'd you ever part with that table?

So the men won 66% of the time? I guess men have to win at least some of the time.

...Jennifer...

Jenn...that table was tough to part with, but as long as the story went where IT went, and to a family friend we know, we were fine with it.

When we started playing cards together, Kathy was pregnant with our first son. During those years, both our boys would fall asleep UNDER that table while we were playing. They grew up UNDER that table!

In recent years we play much less...and of course the women win much more. Must be because that table is no longer part of the game!

You and Chad have a fun relationship. We can all see that. Never take life too seriously....even in the darkest moments, and you two will have plenty more fun stories of your own in years to come.
