I was joking.......
I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?

Not like that Marco. I NEVER mean anything maliciously as hopefully you know - I've heard too much myself.....

Had me fooled too! Was just about to write a post of incredulity, so I'm awfully glad you quickly exonerated yourself.

We have a nine year old Philips 14" TV/Vid and the tube (a valve derivative) has changed in characteristics (in a good way - I doubt it's the driving electronics), the "dynamic range" between dark and light seemingly larger. I'm sure it's not imagined and even at its age (not been used hugely), it's a great little picture..
I'm one of those who can laugh at a joke, yet am totally unable to convey one, even with smilies..............
As for marital relationship needing to burn in - for some of us it takes a bloody long time.... Burn-out is often the result.
I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,

Anything that volatile will stunt your marriage (or is it growth?????)
