My wife and I were discussing this over dinner and I told her the report says they are 700,000 doctors in the US and 80,000,000 gun owners. I said that the gun owner number probably isn't correct and more likely 80,000,000 guns. To which she replied yea, how many do you have - 30 or 40? I said yes, something like that. She then responded with "and you always complain about me buying clothes."
My response was, which was the fatal error when my mouth was in gear before my brain was engaged, "Yes I do because I can still fit into the guns I bought 25 or 30 years ago!"
You that have been married a while know the look and the deadly silence that follows something like that....
I will let you know once the swelling goes down in my left eye
