Oh cripes that's funny stuff. I can totally relate... my mother in law loves being generous so she can remind you what she gave you ,and how much it cost. Especially if there are people around. She's currently banished from our property so I don't have to put up with it too much.
Dueller, I think stomachmonkey is bang on:
"Stop, I gave my professional advice on this matter once. If you wish to continue discussing it I must advise you that the 1st hour was free, any further conversation regarding this matter will be billed at the friends and family rate of $150 an hour. Shall I start the clock?"
