Ohh Henro; you tread on thin ice. After the BOSS see's your comments that calander may be pined to your forehead with the same green tack!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Pete: Staw - vehicle upholstery - mice all make a very nice combination.

Re: Wife\'s improving, but...

Henro, what do the red dots on the calendar stand for? The days you get your chewy heartworm pills? 

Red dots????

Yes there are red dots. Wonder what they mean? Had call on my backup.

Verified the dots were really there by taking a trip to the kitchen. Can't figure it out on my own and finally have to ask the wife...what do these red dots mean???

She laughs...the red dot on the 20th marks your birthday. The one on the 26th is for me and Maggie (youngest daughter and wife share the same birthday).

What can I say? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Guess I have to say thanks to JazzDad. Now I won't forget to let them know I am expecting something for my birthday!

Probably would have forgotten otherwise... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Thanks for keeping me on my toes, JazzDad! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Red dots bring back memories.

The last ship I served on was a rickety Korean War vintage minesweeper. We were doing tests of a new sonar system so tied up to the pier closest to the harbor entrance right across from a Coast Guard cutter. Our crew was all male. The Coasties were gender integrated, with about 20% of their crew female.

Every month, for about six days, the cutter flew the Bravo flag (a red pennant) from their yardarm. We had no idea what it meant, but noticed it coincided with a certain level of irritability among their female shipmates. One of the chiefs on the cutter finally explained that when women live together their time of the month becomes synchronized, so they all went thru PMS together. Flying the Bravo flag was a warning to all males coming aboard! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Man Pete, speaking of red dots, Bravo flags and such...

And especially being a former Coastie...

And seeing that the wife is Japanese...(mine)

Have you noticed the Japanese flag?

One big red dot... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Had I only had your knowledge/wisdon back then... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

PS...I see the Bravo flag is more than just a red dot, but then the Japanese are sometimes less direct than us Westerners... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Maybe that red dot on the Japanese flag does not really represent the rising sun after all... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Re: Wife\'s improving, but...

Henro you ever watch the Red Green Show?

Their motto is the best:

I'm a man....
And I can change....
If I have to....
I guess....

I think it's a Canadian show but it's to die for. Your gut will hurt after you watch it.
