08/21/2007: "But It All Seems So Easy ..."
A friend of mine is going through a tough patch in her marriage ... hell, who am I kidding - it's Armageddon. Both sides have pulled out the flamethrowers and are hosing down anyone and anything. It's pretty ugly. Anyway, she and I have been talking a lot lately about relationships and what makes one work versus fail, and all the little nuances. As a single guy, it all seems pretty straightforward to me, but I say the same thing when I watch a guy race a car around a track at 200-mph - it looks easy right up to the point when you put it into the wall.
With all of this in mind, I thought it appropriate to reprint an joke from LARadio.com this morning:

Wish my friend could have seen this about a year ago ...
