    Last time I took her she actually enjoyed herself. My wife NEVER even looked at my collection until I sold a few and then she realized it's not just a hobby but it is also a way to invest. By that I mean to say....If ya buy em right you can sell em right.
    edited to say....When we leave a coin show I ask her if she'll drive so I can look over my new coins.

    I cant believe I didn't find a single IKE or Kennedy worth buying.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    See, I told you that you would be the best looking woman there.

    My wife went to one show.

    Asked if she would go again, she quoted the words of the French philosopher Voltaire.

    He had visited a house of male prostitution, and asked if he would return, he stated that he visited once as as a philosopher, but twice would be a pervert.

    "Oh, hi dear. I was on my way to play bingo at the YMCA and...", if she greeted me at the door as I walked out.
