I think that's a compliment wrapped in a sneaky swipe.

That is the weak approach to Hamster politics. A steel fist in an iron glove is needed. Work them to exhaustion, beat them mercilessly and crush and destroy their hamstery hopes and dreams under the jackboot of tyranny. It is the only language they understand!

Well, as the third involves dressing up as a sheep and paying a visit on OriginalGriff, I think we'll skip that one.

Just because OG is of the Welsh persuasion it doesn't follow that his little flocker. It'd be like saying all Newcastle Lasses get lashed up on a Friday night down the Bigg and scare the living daylights out of any man foolish enough to get too near... ... okay, bad analogy.

That won't happen, I have total control over the hamsters. Any insurrection and I shall release the Special Forces Trained Attack Chinchillas, backed up with the fearsome Guinea-Pig Dragoons! Remember what happened to Hammy Hamster? The Riverbank tales were a lot darker after that episode in Rodent History.

Mrs Yoda reads CP. But then again, she's a qualified developer (retired from profession) so she likes to keep an eye on things (me).

I'm sometimes relieved that I married a luddite, barely know how to open a browser, certainly has neither the interest nor the skills to chase down something in the OTHER browser. It must be weird being married to a professional peer, if a conversation gets too technical I can see the wife's eyes glaze and know it is time to change the subject.

It seems like only yesterday. I was at the Christmas party down the pub; a party I'd not wanted to go to but a mate needed a wingman to keep him out of trouble. There on the dance floor, strutting her funky stuff was a vision, a beauty, one hell of a hot chick. The Neanderthal in me kicked in, "mine" I though. The conversation was brief and to the point. "You dancing?" "You asking?" "I'm asking." "I'm dancing." We danced and, when the music slowed, I took her in my arms and it was right. Later we found a quiet spot to chat and get to know each other. I kissed her with abandon; she took off the band and I kissed her again. When it was time to leave, I didn't want to let her go so I invited her back to my place. We went and talked through the night until the sun came up; then she went home and I had to go to work for a couple of hours. We had dinner that night and by the middle of the week, I'd rearranged my Christmas plans to spend as much time as possible with her and go away for New Year together. We married on 5th May 2001, less than five months later, and I must confess as every day passes I love her more and more. Tomorrow we'll go out for dinner and have a little bit of romance for a change. This is our day, it's not shared with friends and family it's just for Mrs Wife and Vilmos.

Luddites are fine :) though trying to explain the concept of 'mass' (cf Higgs Boson) to her was entertaining...
As a flip, Mrs Wife tries to explain Middle Eastern politics to me and my brain hits a BSOD. You would not believe how fractious Libya is now post-Qadafi. It was fine while they wanted to get rid of the old regime but, much as is happening in Egypt, now the common goal has been reached the in-fighting is astounding. At least it's only words now. But she understands this stuff and even knows a lot of the players.

Well since the actual anniversary is some 5.5 months away you will have plenty of time to arrange for a suitable gift. The 11th is traditionally steel, so, assuming your reading skills are as advanced as your spelling/typing I should start practicing your pock picketing.

Working on that basis every day is the anniversary of something in your relationship. Does that mean that we are to be subjected to similar waffle every day?
