One Man's Addiction

Hilarious! Makes one wonder why there arent more women running down (then backing over) their spouses in the driveway.

Some men hide lipstick on their collar. With me, it's my Ebay password.

If a parking ticket for an expired meter sends her into hysterics she may be a tad high-strung.

Ya think?

I suspect it is all a put-on--does anyone really believe that a man married to a harridan like that would write an article making her into a national laughingstock? Still, if it is true I'd hate to be the deciding vote on the jury trying this guy for letting Mr. Hand turn into Mr. Fist.

I'm probably in the minority here, but if my spouse were putting thousands of dollars on credit I'd be pissed too. I also would never lie to my wife about how much money I was spending.

Happy to say I have not purchased any cards on credit. I feel that might constitute a problem. My wife is aware of what I spend. She also knows where the front door is...Ha Ha Ha joking of course (in case she decides to read Net54).

I'll attempt to extract my foot from my mouth. Adam is probably correct in assuming that the article was a bit of put-on but my first impression was to take it seriously. If anyone were to interfere with my enjoyment of baseball card collecting or anything else for that matter, I would not take kindly to being dictated to. That being said, my wife's well-being comes first in my priorities. No bill has ever gone unpaid because I over-spent on old cardboard. Our financial security, present and future, has never been compromised because of my filthy, disgusting habits. My wife is a saint. She is supportive of my collecting because she knows how much I enjoy it. She knows I spend big bucks. If this guy is using Junior's lunch money to buy T206s his wife has a right to be concerned. If he's sneaking VISA and eBay purchases into the house it's true cardaholic behavior. But if she is going to order him to stop buying cards and otherwise get all habuts their marriage will soon be circling the drain. QED and end of rant.
