Women!!!!

OK, I didn't want to pollute Sniper's thread about his frustration with women with a boring thread about how great they are, but I am kind of an Anti-Sniper in this respect and feel compelled to make the counterpoint.

I have been married 28 years and wouldn't change a thing. My woman is the best partner I could possibly have. She is good natured, supports me unquestionably, puts up with my nomadic career, loves to fool around as much as I do, and (Porsche content here) has supported my car addiction way beyond the point of being reasonable.

I also know that there are a lot of you out there that have the same kinds of relationships. It is just a lot less interesting, than reading stories about chasing and catching beautiful women(Go Sniper!) But I wouldn't give up what I have for any other woman.

So I am sorry for all the haters, but here's to WOMEN!!!!!

See, first you sound bitter, but now you acknowledge the sweet, what's next?

And, FYI, that is (purportedly) Gogar's "friend."

I gotta repeat Chucks comments for my wife too. Her only downside is that she hates boats and the water.
She puts up with a ton of my crap that I know I wouldnt even put up with.

My wife is similar to Chuck and Vinny's. And my general opinion of women is pretty high.

I made the point about being married for more than a few years (jeez I am getting old) to counter the thought that everyone eventually gets tired of "plowing the same ground". Not necessarily true. It may be fun to "date" a lot in your 20's - ? But I have a few that have gone that path all their lives I don't envy them...(well maybe a couple of times)

One woman in 28 years?
I'd rather cut my throat with a razor... I prefer a rate of one every 28 days, truth be told!


More power to you my friend, but it's not for me.

Same situation here, Chuck - 36 years. Rattlesnak is right.

+100 for women, er at least my wife.

We have been married for almost 19 years. I told her before we got married the moment I quit looking at pretty ladies she needs to call 911 cause I am dead. I just enjoy the view.

She was the one that suggested I needed a 911 instead of my 914. She has never asked how much I spend on my toys. I feel very lucky to have found her.
