I mentioned this in the lawyer thread the other day.
I had a judge tell me I was trying to turn the defendant into an escape goat.

Yes, it was originally. My buddy named his son Julian (goes by Jules) because of it.Weren't "hey Jules" the original lyrics? Seem to remember an interview where Paul said it was written for Julian Lennon but Jules was too much of a mouthful.
Is it worse that I am a Bears fan?Poor woman. She's been putting up with you for how long now?My wife is a Packer fan.

University of Phoenix?A few years back when driving with my SIL I said we're going 60mph so we'll be there in about an hour. Apparently she didn't realize that at a speed of X miles per hour you will be able to travel X miles in an hour.
No lie, she has an MBA as well.
Wife thought it was Canada.My girlfriend thought Van Halen's "Panama" was "Burnin Love" until the other day when the title popped up on radio screen. lol wut
But can she estimate the relative size of two pizzas? That's the real question.My wife didn't understand for the longest time how I gauged with accuracy how far and how long road trips were in Florida which is very easy, they typically have mile markers in coordination with the exits. Example, the mile marker is roughly 109 on the Fl Turnpike which in conjunction is Exit 109 where you get off for our little town. So if you know you are driving to Exit #245 and you are at mile marker 120...doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out you have about 125 miles or 1.5-2 hours depending on traffic or how fast you want to risk it. She refused to believe me and even laughed at the notion for the longest time, she's not laughing anymore...of course that could be due to a lot of things.

Did you laugh?I mentioned this in the lawyer thread the other day.

No comment.Did you laugh?
I mean, I am sure it would behoove you not to laugh but I don't think I would have been able to control myself.
In 1979 when I first met my ex-wife she had no idea what an aircraft carrier was. None.in 1997 when I first met my ex-wife she thought a web page was a wet page.

She needs to be an ex-wife. Stat.My wife doesn't know what an aircraft carrier is.
I've driven cross country a few times, can't say it is exactly that way in all 50 states. Feels like a few of them don't quite measure up.You know that's not just a Florida thing, right?

You caught me mid-edit. Other way around.Things have changed a little since you last took a road trip. You can't drive these anymore.
My wife did this also but she didn't believe it when it was shown on TV so I had to show her on our kids globe.elbowrm said:My now wife visited me in my office one afternoon when we were dating. At the time we were doing a fair amount of business in Canada, so I had a map of North America pinned up next to my computer.
She looked at the map and said:
"why are they showing Alaska attached to Canada?"
No wayChemical X said:my wife was singing 'living in the Bronx' while the who's 'eminence front' was on the radio.
