Don has lots of opinions:On being a buffoon: I hate being a buffoon, but it seems like I'm always messing up. Not longago I got in the car with my wife to run some errands. I took the TV remote with me just in caseI had to make a cell phone call. Nancy made fun of me, and I tried to use the mute button onher, but it didn't work.On his 37th Anniversary: "We returned home and wandered off to bed at 10:00. Nancy donnedher "Born to Sleep" PJs and I was asleep before my head hit the pillow. When we were newlymarried this is not the way we would have anticipated our 37th anniversary ending, but in 2004it was just fine. So much for romance. It's still there; it's just different.On fasting: Fasting is a fundamental Christian practice, and it is mentioned 33 times in theBible. Now, let me ask a question. When was the last time you heard a sermon on the subjectof fasting? You'll hear a hundred sermons on eschatology, a thousand on tithing or how manyangels you can stack on the head of a pin before a preacher will suggest a Christian foregohis or her staple of donuts, fried chicken or baked beans. Actually, I don't mind fasting; it's justthe hunger I object to.On remodeling the house: "What on earth do we need a new toilet for?" I protested. Nancy'sresponse was: "The old toilet was the wrong shade of white." The wrong shade of white?! Yougot to be kidding me! Our 401K is in the toilet due to the economy, and now I'm spending mykid's inheritance replacing a toilet that is the improper shade of white!!
