"'til death do us part" does not come with qualifications and escape clauses.

"til death do us part" IS an escape clause....
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Boy, amen to this!  May the Lord help you if you don't notice something different about the hair.  And when they complain of a bad hair day, it apparently is not a good idea to suggest that they shave their head as I do.

Have you considered finding a girlfriend with a sense of humor? :)

and it doesn't specify who has to die
It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Many times, but for some reason, my wife is not getting behind that plan. Hmmm.

Maybe you just need to offer to share.

Or would that be running into the sense of humor problem again?

Geez - didn't any of you guys watch "Tao of Steve"?  =D

"Both men and women want to have sex. It's natural, except we're on different timetables. Women want to have sex, like, y'know, fifteen minutes after us, so alright, if you hold out for twenty she'll be chasing you for five. "

Who knew that uttering the phrase 'smokin hot threesome' would cause such conniptions?
