I recently received this months Missouri Conservationist magazine and there was a great article on Missouri prairie chickens. LOML was in the tub soakin' her bones and I was reading the article in the bedroom. I kindly asked her if she wanted to read the magazine before I discarded it. She stated that she might want to browse through it. I then informed her that there was a great deal on Missouri prairie chickens in it. She then asked if I had lost my ever lovin ****** mind. I said NO and that there is a great deal on prairie chickens and there is only like 500 of them left in the state. She then asked again if I had lost my ever lovin ****** mind. This caught me off guard and I asked her what crawled up her behind. She stated that we ain't buying no **** prairie chickens no matter what kind of deal it is. I guess I should have stated that it was a great deal of information on prairie chickens!!! I was laughing till tears ran down my face!!! She then informed me that when I say the word DEAL, it usually means a good buy on a car, woodworking equipment, honey can I buy this, etc. I stated that we do have a little extra room in the basement!!!
