    My wife won't have any part of my "2nd" midlife crisis. I don't remember the first.

    Franks, sounds your duties on that Maverick have been relegated to passenger and admirer.

    My wife once took my 74 shopping (I didn't know where she was going), So while shopping she called me from the Mall, I asked her where the car was, she said "In the parking lot"....Well that was the last time she drove one of my cars.

    so what franks really saying is that "effie took his car and went home to mom". the real question is "did she come back?":rofl2:
