Wrapped Around Her Finger
The Results are in for the Wedding Ring Debate
Looks like another tough loss. I didn’t really try to propose an argument because I thought a man could decide what he wears--I guess not. Typically we have to stand behind the decision the voters make, but I will ...

My wife shelled out a whopping $60 for a wedding ring when we got married. I didn't care that it wasn't fancy or expensive, but I hated how it felt on my finger. I ended up losing the ring in the grass three years later while playing a game that ...

Here are the results from our Gift-Giving Debate.
I can't believe she won this debate. Now I can't count towels, dishes, or appliances as gifts because they are a need rather than a want. There are a few positives from this loss:

The votes have been tallied for the great gaseous debate.
This isn't as surprising as my last loss , but I am still surprised I didn't have more support. My wife's "smoke cloud" of lies tainted the voters. I guarantee a win next time!

Results are in for the Business Trip/Vacation Debate.
I must admit that I am surprised by the outcome of this debate. I really thought I would win this argument, but I guess not.

I Want to Get Away
