I kinda miss a law when I was a kid where it was illegal to operate businesses on Sundays. At least I think it was a law. The small town of Anahuac where I grew up was so peaceful on Sundays.

Now what about when your woman hits back? Does she need a cane on the courthouse steps or a frying pan when she feels like it? My grandpa said to never hit a dog or a woman. Because both will rip up your rear when you turn around. |

Because both will rip up your rear when you turn around. Just make sure the cane you use is somewhere between the size of your thumb and the size of hers. Then it will be bigger than her thumb and therefore illegal for her to hit you back with.  Now if you have a large wife then I guess she gets to whoop you back all she wants and it might not be all that smart to start whooping her in the first place  Waylon |

X2 I think it was because God was more important than the dollar back then; not so much now (to most), but I agree much more peaceful back then. |
