My marriage is falling apart!

So I have a birthday coming up in eight days. In a typical Mini owner fashion I started buying the birthday presents a week ago: an H-Sport competition sway bar, new 17 inch Momo rims, new tires. But now, I find out that my scheming wife, Little Egg, who will become an owner of '06 MCS JCW in about a week, has something else planned for the Egguinn for my birthday. But despite my best interrogation techniques, which I learned in the Military and during a few unplanned visits to the local Sheriff's station, she will not reveal any information to even allow me to speculate.

Should I divorce her, or wait? Let's hear it.

Well as long as she has not invited you to join her on the Jerry Springer show I think you are ok.

Ok, you did not need to go there. I don't even have a witty reply to that...

Jerry, don't even THINK about the "d" word regarding your lovely, fun and very fabulous wife, T (aka "little egg")!

She's so fantastic that I want to marry her! I want her to Zaino my Wanda, dammit!

I am really dying to know what groovy birthday plan is in store for Egguin! WOO HOOOO!!!

One more thing about Jerry. He has had that show for how many years now and he still can find people that will answer YES when their partner invites them to join them on The Springer show. Oh ya and another thing, when is he going to run out of trailor parks to find his talent. I didn't know we had that many .

...maybe you're using the wrong techniques. She sounds like a keeper. See, the problem with guys is, you don't have the fine art of "nagging and manipulation" fine tuned...it is a subtle, subliminal touch...us gals start our training at a tender young age. ...so, my words of advice to you would be "Patience, Grasshopper."

Have you tried foot tickling? Maybe a liberal use of wine/beer/cocktail to bring on the spilling of beans?

Yes I have. It got me lucky, but she would still not tell any secrets.

She already gets plenty of that! Her car is not even here yet and I already have an office full of parts that need to be installed. And jewelry is just a given, so I don't think it would buy me anything extra.

Ahh yes I am reading. I am feeling the Love. At least I know that if Jerry leaves me Clo will take me in

I have to admit I am quite enjoying the torture I am putting him through. Not a word about what he is getting. Hee Hee.

He will know by next Friday so stay tuned.

You got some new wheels for Egguin? Where are the pics, man?!

Oh yeah, what parts do you have that are waiting to be installed? I have been waiting to buy some parts I've wanted until my garage was ready. We may be able to figure out a way to save some cash on the install, and drink alot of beer at the same time.
