<br /><br />WMH: Sure thing. And candlelight dinners, soft music, moonlight walks. Acknowledgement, appreciation.<br /><br />Unfortunately, probably not all in the same man.<br /><br />Yeah, I did the marriage thing 25 years. I was too flawed a human being to stay the course. She's rich today, living in Austin there somewhere not too far from you. Fine lady, I still miss her. And thank the Coincidence Coordinators every day I left her and had all these years in solitude.<br /><br />I'm reasonably sure she had some flaws, too, but I'd have to work to recall them. Hope she's enjoyed herself during these intervening years as much as I've done.
<br /><br />Rae: every marriage I ever heard of involved two egos.
<br /><br />Not a bad alternative. My old cat Shiva the Cow Cat used to take walks with me, but mainly it was to chase cows away from the cabin. But the candle option's out with felines because they'd almost certainly set fire to the place knocking them over. I'm a big point of interest for them, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they appreciate me except in a fairly abstract sense.<br /><br />They do spend a lot of time staring at me.
<br /><br />So'd Himmler, Goebbles, Goering and Joseph Kennedy. No accounting for human tastes.</span>
<br /><br />Maybe. But giving the devil his due, Himmler probably innovated those camps, Goebbles invented daytime talk radio, Goerring was fairly innovative with his uniforms, and Joe Kennedy could probably be said to have innovated the three Kennedy brothers of US fame.<br /><br />I'm not sure what Eva Braun innovated, so maybe she was just somebody's bitch.
<br /><br />The others were pushed into it and were only trying to saved their own skins.<br /><br />Joey had the gumption to push the whole "let him have his way and he'll go away" bit, which blew up in his face. Eva didn't innovate so much as happened to be in the right place at the right time. Basically she was the Snooki of her day.<br /><br />josephusminimus said:
