You must be dating and not married. All married men know to wear headphones. Be surprised all the sounds you're missing.

Actually, this can be hazardous as well. I've incurred a few head wounds over the years this way. If you don't listen when she talks, she will eventually throw something at you. TV remotes, phones, etc.

Give her a credit card.....With all the tv's on, several dogs barking, every kid from the hood at my house, my friends with no kids ask me how I'm not nuts.

Basically all your nerves go over time. They can't understand when I say I don't hear all the noise.

So if she ever threw a remote at me, I probably wouldn't feel it anyway.

Pass on the headphones, they may allow you to ignore the Wife but they also mean that you end up ignoring the Cat who might just use a leg for a scratching post to get your attention when she needs Cat maintenance or to be let out long after Wife has gone to ground.

On topic however, winter 41-42 search the Makassar Straight (between Borneo and Celebes) or Karimata Straight (between Sumatra and Borneo). Some big convoys run through these areas.

Good Hunting

Cats...I have or had a cat that was 22 years old. I guess she finally died.
Haven't seen her for over a week and nothing has touched her food. Overall I hate cats, but loved this one. Not many cats live that old.

22 is a pretty good run for a cat, here's hoping she hasn't suffered. We had one hang on for 16-years and it broke my heart to finally put him down. Current Cat Mark II is a horrible little creature who manages to be annoying and amusing at the same time. We're actually cat-sitting her for my son who dropped her off on his way to the Orient to teach. That was four-years ago. Stupid Cat...

My wife show's Yorkies and Maltese. I walked her champion Yorkie late one night on a show lead, which doesn't fit tight around the neck. He got loose and took off. We looked for hours at 2AM. She finally drove up to the main road....he got run over and killed.She actually saw it and said the car went into the other lane and sped up to hit him, bunch of rednecks in a hotrod. ..When she pulled up I knew it was bad. I went and got him, put him in a shoe box and buried him. She just got offered 20K for him and said no.....wish we would've took the money.

Haha... I do wear headphones but they are not the best model as they do not cover my ears completely. It is necessary to not shut off reality entirely as it's our little unspoken deal. This way she doesn't mind (or at least minds less ) me spending time on something she thinks is just a waste of time . But when she just want's to watch TV I need more than just watching...I want to make my own story...

Anywho...

I do hear the faint noises, regardless of the background noise...I just wanted to be sure I do not miss anything and what to look for. So if the green light comes on I do not need to worry!
