I like the way that you think! You're devious, but in a cute kind of way. Playing to my wife's pride as you've suggested probably has a pretty good chance of doing some good, at least if I can figure out how to go about it the right way. I realize that it was just an example, but if I went through your dialogue verbatim I'm afraid that she'd see right through me. She'd get mad and say "stop patronizing me!". That's why I sometimes wish that I'd married someone a little dumber (kidding actually). However, if I give it some thought, I'll bet I can find a similar way to use what you've suggested. The wheels are turning! Thanks.
By the way, if Corri actually stops posting, you realize that you'll have to come back "full time" to fill in for her, don't you? Just kidding of course - well, kind of anyway .
