That's some damn fine wisdom kids. I totally agree.
My line was always...Honey, your one in a million, but on a planet with six billion people...remember, there are still six thousand of you out there.
As an aside, Claustin...I still look back fondly on women I dated previously...despite a few lapses in judgement, I have pretty good taste in women!
