My Wife
Posted by lpolpo22 on Tuesday, August 19, 2003 9:55 AM
It is my 35th anniversary on the 24th and i have to take this moment to say something nice about my wife. Retired for the last two years she had worked at McGuire AFB in NJ in various positions but the one that stands out was when she was in public relations. IT was through her that I got to meet, and have photos taken with, the Thunderbirds, the Blue Angels, the Snowbirds, and the ill fated Frecce Tricolori. I would get VIP seating and press passes. I could enter the air shows before the gates opened and see the aircraft from the other side of the ropes. I could use the office bathroom and not have to stand in line at the Port-A-Potty. I could get free lithographs and posters and get my picture on TV. She never complains about my hobby and raves about my models and shows them and explains the details to vistors. I don't know of too many women that would put up with my kind of crap over the years but apparently she sees something in me that I don't. SO I just want to say thanks for being you Honey, I love you.

Richard,
Your wife sounds ok, for a girl.................
Honestly, and truly, I wish you 35 more anniversaries and all the happiness in the world. It's all too rare that someone ends up finding the RIGHT life partner. I think you should keep her.
Cheers, mate

Congratulations to all of you with your anniversaries. You guys have very special ladies, especially considering the hobby that we share. I have a great woman that has supported my addiction to plastic for 18 years now. She's actually the reason I got back into the hobby after a protracted absence.
