You married well (and a rubia), si man.  

Well, she is a Russian, and you know how they are.

 

She has told me several times we will never get divorced. 

 

When she is done with me she will just poison me.

DEATHBED CONFESSION

 

While a man was dying, his wife was maintaining a candlelight vigil by his side.  She held his fragile hand, tears running down her face.

 

Her praying woke him from his slumber.  He looked up, and his pale lips began to move slightly.

 

"My darling," he whispered.

"Hush, my love," she said.  "Rest -- don't talk."

 

He was insistent.  "I have something that I must confess," he said in a tired voice.

 

"There isn't anything to confess," replied his weeping wife.  "Everything's OK.  Go to sleep."

 

The man blurted out, "No, no -- I must die in peace.  I... I slept with your sister, your best friend, her best friend, and her mother!"

 

"I know," whispered his wife.  "That's why I poisoned you, si man."

That's pretty much my wife's attitude.  

 

She said from now on we bring our guns to work with us.

 

She wasn't kidding.

The lawyer who was at the wedding was back in today and was saying "maybe I could get a taser -- is it legal to get a taser here? -- okay Siri, can I get a taser for office defense in California? wait, no one trusts me to have a taser? Really?"  

 

Meghan has been at this firm for 11 years and she told me during that time there have been 5 people who have ever just wandered into the office looking for assistance, and this was the only one who ever made her nervous. We're on the 6th floor so that helps, I'm sure.
