Commandment 2 If you want your wife to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say, talk in your sleep. Commandment 3 Marriage is grand -- and divorce is at least 100 grand! Commandment 4 Married life is very frustrating. In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks andthe man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the neighbors listen. Commandment 5 When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing: Either the car is new or the wife is. Commandment 6. Marriage is when a man and woman become as one; The trouble starts when they try to decide which one. Commandment 7 Before marriage, a man will lie awake all night thinking about something you say. After marriage, he will fall asleep before you finish. Commandment 8 Every man wants a wife who is beautiful, understanding, economical, and a good cook. But the law allows only one wife. Commandment 9 Marriage and love are purely matter of chemistry. That is why the wife treats the husband like toxic waste. Commandment 10 A man is incomplete until he is married. After that, he is finished.. Bonus Commandment story A long married couple came upon a wishing well. The wife leaned over, made a wish and threw in a penny. The husband decided to make a wish too. But he leaned over too much, fell into the well, and drowned. The wife was stunned for a moment but then smiled, "It really works!" my thought.....marriage is not a word, it is a sentence....A life sentence.....!!!!! marriage is as acheivement....the husband looses his bachlor degree and the wife gets her masters.....

Commandment 4: Married life is rarely frustrating. After a bit of a chat/discussion, you can make up. Eight years of marriage and still in love! Did you ever get any of your stuff back from the car Darren?
