Here is my wife and I in San Juan in November. We'll be married for 29 years in a few weeks. She's a keeper. Her Ladies Pearlmaster is visible.

Yes, totally agree - Palmer was part of the the classic prog group ELP and I loved Bozzio's playing on Jeff Beck's classic Guitar Shop album. Both have very different styles but are considered gods in the drumming world.

Thank you for the nice reply. After 29 years I hope you and your lovely wife are as happy as we are. God Bless.

TR... The avatar is of Rodney Dangerfield, a famous American comedian. Unfortunately he died a few years ago.

The fact that you and your wife have been together for 29 years means that you guys get ALL of the RESPECT!!! Unlike our friend Rodney!!!

Congratulations!

Thanks guys. Ya I know I am a little obsessed with my IIC. I think my wife is starting to regret getting it for me. Every so often she throws out a “you and that damn watch” comment. But after a minute she will come back and say “well at least I know you are happy with the gift”.

I usually counter with - "at least it's not drugs...or alcohol...or women...or cars...or guns..."

That usually quiets her down. Either that, or I comment on the 70 pairs of shoes or the dozen high-end purses - the last one last Xmas I got for her - A Louis Vuitton. I merely have three watches.
