    Ahhh shopping. Hate it with a passion.

    Shopping is not a leisure pursuit or a ***** hobby.

    What I hate is those "visitor's" gift shops you find whenever you go somewhere to visit.

    Whatever is bought is either never used, or used once or twice and ends up in the basement.

    Well I'm confused. The kids are gone, your wife has been harbouring a deep-seated resentment from something you did last century* and is unlikely to get over it any time soon...

    I can only assume you stayed for the kids. Give her half, take whats left and get out there and experience life without guilt. You'll never look back.

    Go on, off you go.

    * if she hasn't worked out that the only reason you slept with her best friend is because you were missing her and her friend reminded you of her, by now, then theres no hope.

    Women - can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em

    Glad to hear it. You can borrow mine next time they want to go shopping.

    Police have a very high divorce rate. Not sure why contractors should be higher than average.

    My logic is more advanced than your basic logic and because your basic logic can't comprehend my superior logic it incorrectly assumes that it is wrong.

    She was still trying to work that out as I made my exit.
