Of course it was an accident. He's really lucky he didn't manage to pull the trigger when he sat on it. LOL

Note From a Thoughtful Husband
It is important for men to remember that, as women grow older, it
becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping
as
when they were younger. When you notice this, try not to yell at
them.
Some are oversensitive, and there's nothing worse than an
oversensitive
woman. My name is Ron. Let me relate how I handled the situation with
my wife, Julie. When I took "early retirement" last year, it became
necessary for Julie to get a full-time job, both for the extra income
and
for the health benefits that we needed.
Shortly after she started working, I noticed she was beginning to
show her age. I usually get home from the golf course about the same
time she gets home from work. Although she knows how hungry I am, she
almost always says she has to rest for half an hour or so before she
starts dinner. I don't yell at her. Instead, I tell her to take her
time
and just wake me when she gets dinner on the table. I generally have
lunch in the Men's Grill at the club so eating out is not reasonable.
I'm ready for some home cooked grub when I hit that door.
She used to do the dishes as soon as we finished eating. But now
it's not unusual for them to sit on the table for several hours after
dinner. I do what I can by diplomatically reminding her several times
each evening that they won't clean themselves. I know she really
appreciates this, as it does seem to motivate her to get them done
before
she
goes to bed.
Another symptom of aging is complaining, I think. For example,
she will say that it is difficult for her to find time to pay the
monthly bills during her lunch hour. But, boys, we take 'em for
better or
worse, so I just smile and offer encouragement. I tell her to stretch
it
out over two or even three days. That way she won't have to rush so
much. I also remind her that missing lunch completely now and then
wouldn't hurt her any (if you know what I mean). I like to think tact
is
one of my strong points.
When doing simple jobs, she seems to think she needs more rest
periods. She had to take a break when she was only half finished
mowing
the yard. I try not to make a scene. I'm a fair man. I tell her to
fix herself a nice, big, cold glass of freshly squeezed lemonade and
just sit for a while. And, as long as she is making one for herself,
she
may as well make one for me, too.
I know that I probably look like a saint in the way I support
Julie. I'm not saying that showing this much consideration is easy.
Many
men will find it difficult. Some will find it impossible!
Nobody knows better than I do how frustrating women get as they
get older. However, guys, even if you just use a little more tact and
less criticism of your aging wife because of this article, I will
consider that writing it was well worthwhile. After all, we are put
on
this
earth to help each other... Ron
EDITOR'S NOTE: Ron died suddenly Thursday May 26. He was found
with a Calloway extra long 50-inch Big Bertha Driver rammed up his
backside with only 2 inches of grip showing... His wife Julie was
arrested,
but the all-woman Grand Jury accepted her defense, that he
accidentally
sat down on it.
