Don't P*** Your Wife Off on New Years Eve
A local friend came to our house wanting to wash his face.
His wife had thrown a rock through the windshield of his car and he had glass slivers in his eyes.
We insisted that he should go to a doctor immediately and after an inspection and careful removal of the slivers; the doctor told him he might have
lost his eye.

Oh MY!! How terrible. What in the world did he do to deserve anything like that?
Did this occur in Baja?

Yes, In Baja
And, No, we don't know or want to know the details.
We made sure he got good medical treatment.

Hmmm, familiar story. He's not by any chance a golfer?
(glad he's OK, splinters in the eye are no fun at all!)

Aww, Jan, you're no fun!
There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

Musta been some kind of rock, windshields are laminated and designed especially to shatter and crumble rather than splinter. Maybe she caught him and
"her" at the local no-tell and bent a mirror over his head.

Our local fish wrap had this entry in the Police Blotter:
A woman called police and reported her husband was yelling at her and scaring the cats.
I have been reading the Blotter in subsequent days, watching for the other shoe to drop...or perhaps a rock thrown through his windshield.

Not New Years eve but...
When I lived in an apartment building in Denver during 1960-61 I had a neighbor that was constantly p***ing off his Cherokee Indian wife. I could hear
her cussing him out at least once a week. Anyhow he came knocking at my door one evening asking me if I could help him. When he turned around he had a
pair if scissors sticking out of his back. I pulled them out and wrapped some gauze around him. He refused to be taken to the hospital and just went
home. Didn't hear much arguing after that.
