Best Happiness To David ! Sure do hope he listens to your good advice, Blue ... and here's a thought from me to help them get started ... hire someone to clean so you'll have more time to enjoy What's Best In Life Together, like The Swallows Return To Fort Lee frinstance.

Tips for David Faber,

David, now that you're a married man, you need to stand up for your basic rights, take it from a guy who is not married, (not anymore that-is):

1. You have the right to eat dinner in front of the T.V.

2. You don't have to stop and ask for directions if you don't want to.

3. The garage is your space, protect it with passion.

Now that we have the basic rights out of the way, let me warn you about some of the common traps. Watch out for these impossible questions:

Does this dress make my butt look big?

Perhaps one of the most botched questions known to man. The problem is that most men really subconsciously know how to answer the question, however, for many men this question is an opportune time to have some fun.... big mistake, don't have fun when it comes to references about the size of her butt. Do NOT anwer, "you mean bigger don't you?" or "yep, whooo-boy" or "do you want an honest answer or a polite answer?"..... that last one will get you the death stare from her for days.

The correct answer is, "your butt is just perfect, and the dress is perfect too." Ya gotta say this even if it makes her look like Jennifer Lopez on butt steroids. The girl's butt size is a tree that we don't want to climb, know what I mean?

Do you have to have that drink?

She's trying to send you a message here and is daring you to say "yes".... What you don't say is "I enjoy a drink now and then, if you got a problem with it get your ass out of the house."

Here's what you do say.... "Thank you for your concern." That's all! Let her think about that one for a while.

And last but not least, the dreaded Do you have any plans for this weekend?

Watch it David, a wrong answer (e.g., "NO") could land you an all day visit to the in-laws'.

Here's how you solve the problem... you say, "Yes, I've got plans to spend the whole weekend alone with you." That way when she tries to make you go for anything other than a quick visit to her mother's, she's the one who looks insensitive and uncaring. This is know as "sympathetic role-reversal" and you will need to master this as your marriage progresses in order to maintain your sanity.

Hope this helps David, back to you Mark.

p.s. Welcome back David, you were missed.
