Hi LC ) HOW TO ASK A MAN TO DO SOMETHING

Always remember these five important rules when asking a man to do something:

1. Make sure the man is conscious.

1. Crash the hard drive on his computer and line the bird cage with the sports section.

2. Be brief! Limit your nagging harangue to two, three hours, max.

1. Reward him for cooperative behavior. Offer to cook him something that doesn't have a peel-back cover.

2. Punish him when he refuses to cooperate. Microwave his remote on high power for 55 minutes. Rotate 1/4 turn, and microwave again for another 35 minutes.

1. Use "would you" or "will you" instead of "you'd better" or "do as I say and no one will get hurt".

Thanks for the advice, Scott, but the only man I have to worry 'bout is my man, and he's NOTHING like any of that...

he's got the sensibility of a woman, in a rockhard studly man's packaging! (in the very best of both statements! LOL)

WWSS?...Haw!

I like to window shop and think of when and where I could use that. I like going into the home decorating stores and getting ideas. Although I usually never do anything with those ideas. I like to imagine and dream.

I love that! LOL.. And how right he is!

I did that too. Cost even less than Mike's. No lawyers. But then, there was nothing to divide, and I knew it wouldn't make any difference to ask for money for the last two years before my daughter turned 18.

I'm thinking not, based on your NRA membership! Haw!

I've read most of the advice given so far. Lots of food for thought for you. Don't want to repeat what has already been said so my one very important piece of advice is not to do what I did. I waited almost five years before making my move.

You are strong, you can do it if that is what you decide. Best wishes.

You are very very right. Haw !!!

Is NRA what I think it is? I'm in Oz and know of only one thing in USA that NRA stands for.... :-)

Hi Melinda. It stands for "National Rifle Association". Your son Joshua is a cutie.

vj found this in rec.crafts.beads, from "Karen_AZ" :

]Ouch! Mine cost $750 and Mike's was $385 or close to that. But we both did ]"standard" divorces and dealt with dividing "stuff" without any legal ]fussing.

you did it yourself????????

]I did that too. Cost even less than Mike's. No lawyers. But then, there ]was nothing to divide, and I knew it wouldn't make any difference to ask for ]money for the last two years before my daughter turned 18.

i want it over and done. but i'm really afraid of missing something and having it come back and bite me in the butt later. no kids. but income stuff is a mess.

You can in CA if it's a no-fault divorce, and there are no custody issues, I think. At least that's the way it was several years ago when a friend of mine did it. Maybe the laws have changed recently, but this is what I remember.

vj found this in rec.crafts.beads, from "Helen C" :

]Him: "Murder's cheaper than divorce" ]Me: "It's only murder if they find YOUR body"

i'd have killed him, but at over 400 pounds, it would have taken too many people to move the body.

vj found this in rec.crafts.beads, from "Karen_AZ" :

]you're his ]wife, not his mother or caretaker.
