The following conversation – totally real – just happened. I think it’s a sign that after 15 years of being together Mike and I can still find something to talk about
Setting: Rain storm 6:54 pm. Mike is watching TV (which means he’s just changing channels) and Stacy is scouring the computer for proof of life.
Stacy: “Why don’t dogs purr?”
Mike: “That’s a stupid question.”
S: “I’m serious. Cats purr. Why don’t dogs?”
M: “Just because they walk on 4 legs and have a tail doesn’t mean they’re the same”
S: “But they’re sort of the same. Domesticated and all. They both have fur.”
M: “You’re being silly. Why don’t horses purr?”
S: ………
S: “Good point.”
M: (several minutes later) "Why don't cats bark?"
S: (thinking to herself) "Hah! I got him thinking NOW!!!)
I think that’s funny. Mike has now officially unseated the butcher as the Master Debater.
BTW - I just figured out how to post pictures! So here is one of Mike and the 14-ton pool table.
