Re: miloman is dead meat

Milloman...I am appalled. I am outraged. I cannot believe these good friends on the forum would make light of one of their own who was in a tight fix. A friend respected by one and all, let down in his time of need. A friend cast off into the Sea Of Ribald when he needed a line of hope. Millo, I for one am glad that you have averted a situation all men have shunned since the beginning of marriage. That of an outraged wife! And remember Millo, next time, buy the carpet FIRST dummy. Don't ya' know yer on borrowed time here! Ya' got away with once, next time ya' might not be so darn lucky!!!

Re: miloman is dead meat

I agree OBJ I for 1 thank the earth she walks on. I think she was mad not because more fishing stuff, but I broke the rule of $200 in other words neither party spends more then 200 without consulting the other and I think shes mad at that. I had to remind her that sh e spend thousands on my new motor over Christmas without consulting me what a look I got for that

Re: miloman is dead meat

Wouldn't trade mine in for nothin', not even a new boat...... Well..........naw.....better not go there. Glad anyway ya' got outta this with what's left of yer skin.

Re: miloman is dead meat

let me know when you have a garage sale and<br />I'll drive up the secret is to spread the $800<br />over a couple weeks/months so it don't seem like<br />so much....

Re: miloman is dead meat

I guess the lure donation is out of question now. But since you had the support of all your fishn buds and since you have so many tackle boxes,how about donating one for a door prize at our get together in Oct........just a thought.........

Re: miloman is dead meat

Just for adding the words, "no deceit", just as in a court case, it changes everything. <br />If I were to have done this, I would would tell her, and defend my purchases with "I made it, I blow it....but only when I have to" statement. <br />It's the truth. If she goes for the kitchen knife, I bolt, screaming "TRUTH!!! YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!". (she loves it when I quote Jack).

Re: miloman is dead meat

milo- no cure for what you did, but he's a suggestion for the future that my dad has been doing for years-<br /><br />get a cabella's visa. let your wife use it all year long for her/your purchases. each purchase earns you cabella bucks. my dad loves counting his bucks. once a year, usually in may, my dad sits down with the catalog and goes crazy. most of his purchases are free from his earned cabella bucks.<br /><br />good luck-

Re: miloman is dead meat

I can remember years ago my wife mentioning my need to by fishing stuff every time I went into Walmart. I told her I'll stop when I have all the compartments filled in my tackle box.<br /><br />I'm filling the compartments on my seventh box now.<br /><br />This subject came up again last weekend when I laid another broken back Rapala on the check out counter. On our trip out in the parking lot I said all my tackle was a great investment. She laughed in disbelief. I told her I'd prove it to her when we got home.<br />As soon as we got home I typed in "Fishing Tackle" on ebay's auction site. I showed her the prices they get for full tackle boxes. I reminded her that as soon as I kicked the bucket, she could list all the stuff on ebay and make a small fortune. I actually convinced her that it was a legitamate investment, therefore clearing the way for the purchase of several more boxes and the tackle to fill those empty compartments. <br /><br />So, who needs a 401K when you have fishing tackle?

Re: miloman is dead meat

Yea skinny, I have a small fortune in rod and reels not counting the other fishing stuff.<br /><br />NOSLEEP, I liked that song too.<br /><br />I still am waiting on milo's gift certificate cause with all that stuff he bought, he won't be needing it now.<br /><br />It's ok as long as he did not buy any "lighters".<br />And he knows what I mean.

Re: miloman is dead meat

Miloman, talk to the wife and fess up, explain how you weren't thinking clear and screwed up, sound real sincere and offer to return the stuff when it arrives, she might buy it and you might get to keep both the goods and the wife, if you hafta choose, be careful,,,,,

Re: miloman is dead meat

you guys are funny. I ordered the carpet today and I made sure it was more then the $800 so that I can say well you also got something you wanted. She really didnt care to much when I explained the conversion, she showed me a slip of paper that she had done the day earlier and I was out 4 bucks She shook her head and said well better then you being a drinker beater etc... I said you see honey bunny and seems its all better know. .... Until the 2 boxes get here and Im gone for a day sorting

Re: miloman is dead meat

ok so I jest spent 2 hours on the floor in the basement looking over the BIG box I had my son in my lap telling him what each lure was for. My wife said it was one of her most enjoyable evenings she has had sine her dad passed 40 days ago. Seeing my son and I having a moment and me with my big grin from ear to ear. She kissed me and said I love when I see you happy. Me the softy I am told her thats why I married you!! So looks like Im in the clear and ready for more spending, but first I have to make a few $ Signing off as I leave early for the Illinois River for the first PWT Walleye tourny this year wish me luck boys.

I've found that the direct approach is best. Just make sure you're out of reach!
