I feel your pain... you'd think that my "on the side" jobs would keep me in high cotton. But most of the people I moonlight for are aware of my mystical ability to turn beer and pizza into hardware and software wonderments and use that currency most of the time. Got to admit, though, the Do-Si-Dos would probably work for me too.

Now, I'm really confuddled here.

1. do-si-do is a basic country dance step
2. Girls are Guides or Brownies NOT scouts
3. What on earth have peanut butter sandwiches to do with anything?

Answers on the back of a £50 note to PO box 99 London UK.


1. Do-si-dos are also highly nutrious health food. Just keep repeating that over and over, and we'll all feel better.

2. Guides are Scouts in the US, due to the fact that they don't speak real proper English, like what we do.

3. Peanut butter - food of the gods. Peanut butter sandwiches - for the god in a hurry.

Girl Scout cookies, like Girl Guide cookies in the civilized world, are made using only the freshest of Girl Scouts.

Peanut butter, Invented by George Washington Carver here in the USA, Yes He was a black skinned Man, So what? What matters is He did something positive with His life. And yes PB&J is very good on Whole Wheat Whole Grain bread, I like Roman Meal Bread, It always has that fresh bakery smell on each slice.

My experience is a bit different. My wife buys books and cat knick-knacks with the checking account. I buy computer hardware/software on the credit card. The cash depletion reduces the amount I can pay toward a credit card, but the huge amounts I have spent lately on computer stuff have driven up the debt. I guess on this one I can't blame my wife. It's me. I'm just glad this computer is working as intended, or else I would be in a heap of trouble. My wife understands that I really enjoy this, and makes sure I get every opportunity to "play". She reads books, and looks for cat stuff on the Internet. By the way, I'm drinking beer, and if this is how life can be, then I'll renew my subscription.

Well, since we're telling the truth here. My wife is much more sensible with our money than I am. We've spent a ton this last month or so, but it's for something very worthwhile.

I think I'm going to keep her. Even though she's a PITA sometimes, I'm sure I'm at least as bad.

My wife is a collector for a credit union. She knows how to be mean on a real professional level...she particularly enjoys going after the scumbags who owe a ton of child support and think they can get away with it.

I'm the spender too...and it drives her nuts
