My wife have multiple running shticks, like George Costanza’s parents with a little bit of George and Graci thrown in, maybe some Flintstones and Honeymooners mixed in too. We ham it up around the kids. Once in a while I cry out for “serenity now” etc. If you read the pickles comic strip, it describes us pretty well.
One of the bits is me attempting to order the wife to do something. The whole honor and obey thing, right. The truth is, she would not piss on my head if it was on fire if I ordered her to do it. But a few years I hit on something quite amusing (to me anyhow). We were going to vote and I “ordered” her to vote for the candidate she really wanted to vote for. It was like that old star trek where the female robots heads exploded with a paradox. She does not find this nearly as amusing as I do. I think I wore out that one.

If you do have that role, probably not a good joke on a public list in this climate. Just got the early voting mailer with instructions and envelope from our governor, but I'm lazy so I'm waiting for his opponents guys to show up with my prefilled ballot. I don't like the idea of early voting anyway, I won't know til a week before who raped somebody decades ago, or called their neighbor a curr 20 years ago. I'd hate to cast an early vote and find out my guy didn't do anything nefarious. Hitching the old lady this year screwed everything up with the name change and social security name change. She has to 're register and vote that day. She asked me who to vote for. I told her not to vote On Tue, Oct 23, 2018, 9:37 AM Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: Since I am the guy that extracts the files from the voting machines for the county, I can add all my votes to that excel spreadsheet before sending it on to the secretary of state.

I went to early voting today, good turnout, except nobody in line under 60. Maybe because it was the middle of the day, maybe younger folks wait until election day, or maybe the stereotype of millennials not voting is true. Hey all you 20 and 30 year olds, go vote, even if I wouldn’t agree with who you vote for. Going forward, it’s your world, you need to start running it (or at least choosing who does). I think we’re supposed to be at the turning point where there’s more millennials than boomers, although the definition of “millennial” seems open to interpretation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
