OK. We're home. :o

I don't know when to push that symbol on the calculator. Before or after all the 0's....:(

When in the hell does a grown man use square root in the real world besides to look like a geek in public??:confused:

Don't know how many hours of my life I have lost in the mall waiting for my wife. The tradeoff is she never says a word about all the toys I buy!

The daughter and I (my boys learned years back to hate shopping) go shopping together for the wifey's Xmas gifts, that is the ONLY shopping I do year round. We hit an upscale mall and have a light dinner with a large draft beer, shop, then we have an appetizer afterwards and I have another beer or scotch. She drives home.

I don't know how you handle it Timco, pure Purgatory.

Thank God for online shopping !!

You guys are so funny . . . :D

When men shop, they think "Does this store have what I want?"

They find the item and leave.

When women shop, they think "Do I want anything in this store?"

They don't know what they will find, so they have to look at everything.

Hey, I don't make the rules. . .

This is how I am when I walk into a new speed shop. Can't seem to find any lately though. :(

That is the payoff right there. You are one lucky man!:)

Do you shopping mall doubters realise just how many Brownie Points you earn just being with your wife when she's trying to decide on new (insert here: shoes/curtains/nightwear/slacks/kids clothes etc, etc) !!
A nod of the head, a judicious mumble or a frown will get you lots of nice things later.

You just have to realise that by the time she asks you your opinion, she has already made up her mind to buy or reject whatever she is looking at anyway......

And the lucky man gets to carry all the heavy stuff. :)
And if there any money left it is all her money!

Locally Im usually not available to go to the mall and my wife is a fast shopper BUT anytime she wants to go to the mall 4,6,8,10 hrs away Im in the Boxster before her.
And the Boxster is the best car to go weekend or long weekend shopping in.
After your suitcases (hers is big) are in the trunk and frunk, there is not much space left for shopping bags!!!!!!!! GREAT CAR!
