I guess the answer to that question would depend upon how much the spouse in question values their life.

Ya know, late in my life I received a gift I like to think came by the grace of God. It's called the "pause" it gives me long enough to reconsider my response before it comes out of my mouth. You wouldn't believe the trouble it's saved me.

Actually, many actually learn and earn their "pause" from years of experience, but it's amazing just how many forget how to use it!!! :Smirk:

Still a good practice 2500 years later. :)

So true.

I got into trouble at my high school when I put such a sign in front of the PA microphone they recently had installed that was just like this:

I often wondered how or why I got blamed so fast. :Smirk:

Probably would have worked on either of us. I'm particularly adverse to cockroaches, Annie on the other hand just sees them as a sign that an increase in pest control is necessary.
