I WENT SHOPPING: SHE WENT TO THE GAME

And that's how it works. She made me an anniversary card that stated "The best place to be, even for a traveler like me/ is wherever you are". Now is that sweet or not?

But that's the way we are. And, yes, I am so blessed. I did go shopping with her Friday afternoon. During our morning sojourn she asked what I wanted to do that day. My reply: "Play golf."

We went shopping. We didn't buy, but shopped. What was worse was what I put her through that night. We went to a ballgame to watch the last place D-Backs get shut out by the second-to-last place Padres and a pitcher by the name of Kevin Correa. But that's what we do.

Adam's Rib, a great Tracy/Hepburn flick, but then weren't they all(?) addresses the how-to-get along motif. It does take its title from the Holy Bible, the best how-to-get along book ever.

When God created Eve, He did so from Adam's rib. Note the choice of the Creator. The rib area is near the heart. He didn't take the bone from the back of the foot for man to be dominant. Nor did He take it from his forehead, so woman could dominate. He took it from the only place a Perfect Creator could take it--the midsecton. Or if you prefer, the side. As in side by side.

And that's simply the best way to get along. "Through all kinds of weather," as the old song goes.
