Steve you hit it right on the head. My XYL got bit by the Big C. But talked
every thing over and had no problems.
Look at Slick Willy and Pres. Hilla billary, must have lost his G____s along
time ago.
If the XYL wont talk or listen then point her in the correct direction, and
enjoy your remaining life. without being hen picked. Just screw it and do it.
Unless you are different from the rest of us you only have one time around.
Enjoy it.
