When the moon hits your eye.......


Happy Valentine's Day everyone! My Popeye hero who's notably known for being "strong like bull" took me to dinner at "Just Off Broadway" for some romantic culinary yumminess. The musical entertainment was a little more geriatric, though, consisting of an old man serenading on his guitar. Dave and I sat there wondering if it was Senior's Night. Who let THIS dog out? Who, Who, Who, Who........(never mind, that rap song's long gone, too). When he came to our table, I thought I'd throw this old-timer for a loop and request "More than Words" by Extreme. Come on, the song's 16 years old, ya gotta know it! It was played at every sock-hop in junior high. Nope, he was scratching his head over that one. lol! I decided to let him off easy and then requested "It's Amore." Funny, though, we must be getting old, too. It's 10:30 and both Dave and I just want to go to sleep. Ah, old married folks already! Happy Valentine's. Good-Night Everyone!

Valentine's Wish List


Valentine's Day is just around the corner. Our hubbies may be wondering what to give us for that big day. Now, we all know that the media over-hypes their merchandise, promising to win our hearts. I'm here to set the record straight, thus saving hundreds of dollars and promoting a stronger marriage. It's really quite simple! Compare the 2 lists:


What HE thinks we want:


  • Chocolate (it's a little cliche and boring)

  • A fat piece of jewelery (Don't you hate those "Kay" commercials? It's not necessary, honey. We still love the engagement ring!)

  • Lingerie (it's more like butt-floss than undies)

  • A plasma TV to hang over the mantel (this is quite obvious -- no!)


What Women REALLY want him to do:


  • Clean the house (It's called a Vaccuum and it makes the dirt disappear -- really it does!)

  • Sing the praises of our cooking (You know you love it, you know you do!!!!)

  • Put your clothes in the hamper (You're a big boy now)

  • And last but most importantly, agree with us. "Yes Dear" really does work.

Now, offer this fact to your husband, and he might be so impressed that your Wish List may come true:


Sports Trivia: Did you know that this was the 1st Superbowl ever to have an African-American coach? Not only that, this Superbowl featured 2! Something for the coaches and the African-American community to be proud of.
