Er, uh, um, oooops. Sorry about that.
My wife has been getting on me lately about my "socially
inappropriate" behavior. Unfortunately, I don't see it most
of the time. She points it out to me, and I still don't see
it.
I tell her it's genetic, and it's not my fault, but that I'm
looking for a support group.
I will try to constrain such graphic descriptions to the
"Midnight" run of the Aquatic Plants List. :-)
