Weekend Situation Comeback #3

[Tom B.]

Ok, you've been spending a ton of money this past winter getting that Classic Corvette ready for a Flight Showing this year. You scrimped on the family Christmas, your anniversary gift to your wife, and the kids birthday presents so you can dump more dollars into expensive parts. The spring cleaning has been left up to the little lady of the house and she is about to pull her hair out because you've been in the garage for every spare minute. Her last words were if she finds that you've ordered one more part for that car she'll through it out (and you're expecting a numbers matching distributor).

You run out for an errand, and on the way back, the UPS guy goes by in the opposite direction. When you come in, your wife is standing there holding your numbers matching distributor, and says "I guess you're never going to learn, I'm not giving it to you". You're comeback is : _____________________________.

PS: Mine was: "Sweetie, this is just in case the Hokey Pokey is really what it's all about." TBarr #24014

But sweetheart....I need it to fix the Vette to get over to Cartiers to buy that 30 karat white diamond you always wanted to go with the Mink coat I ordered last week.

Fair enough. Just hand me that distributor, ok?

(I'll have a headache after I install it, anyway.)

Just so we're not limited to reply to a one-statement remark:

.......After passing by the UPS guy and coming home, you come inside, cool and casual-like. Your "best other" is still busy Spring cleaning with no evidence of a delivery. But when you get the chance, you look in the trash. There's the open box. There's the invoice. There's the stuffing paper. Where's the distributor? In walks your wife, looks at you holding the trash, and turns away. Your comeback (or reply) is: _________________________. TBarr #24014

All right, all right....

What did you do with it?

Wifey: I told you one more part and I', throwing it out.

You: Getting a little pissed because it was addressed to you: Ok, I don't appreciate you opening my mail, the package was addressed to me, not you. I don't open your packages, and I expect you do the same. That item cost $xx.xx, and I want it back. If not I will get another one, the net time, it comes to my office, so go ahead and play your silly games, just remember, the next one is going to cost more, and THAT amount won't be available for your needs.

Re: All right, all right....

It's not for me, it is really for (fill in the blank), he had it sent here so HIS wife wouldn't find out he ordered more parts.

Guess what GEORGE............................

There goes your love life and you will starve to death and strangle on panty hose in the "John"..... Poor George, I knew him well.

Re: All right, all right....

Trust me Scott (from experience) you will be paying for it the rest of your life. Women have VERY LONG MEMORIES.

But Hon, everybody benifits from this investment. When I'm happy I'm more productive, when I am productive I am a better provider. With more income we ALL lead better lives...how am I doin ?

[Paul R Ouzts]

Actually, Jerry..................................

You are dead meat with that one. Try the diamonds FIRST. Then put guard dogs around the car for protection.

That may look like one of your "power tools", ...

...dear, but it is actually a part for my car.

[Bob Lanham]

and I ordered that before you told me to stop!

And besides, next time I'll use a mail drop and pay for it with moeny orders so you can't trace it.
