    Wow congrats on 20 Years.

    Not knowing your wife = suggestions not being accurate.

    My wife and I like what we call "date nights"... we get dressed up and go to dinner and _______ (whatever she likes).

    Normally I keep it all a secret and tell her that on Saturday she needs to be ready by 6pm... and the dress required.

    Through the whole week she will try and guess... normally I will keep it all in.

    My wife and I just had a date night this past weekend... lunch and a play (musical; Goodbye Girl at Theatre Three).

    Also a suprise trip to a B&B and antique rummaging are always fun.

    Its fun to revert back to the courtship phase occasionally... can help keep the magic alive.

    If Duane wants to dress up for her too, that's his business.

    I think this is a neat idea.......one of those digital photo frames (doesn't have to be one of the big ones) and you pre-upload photos of you, you and her, pets, kids, family, etc....

    Throw in a couple of you racing, of course........

    That's something Titus would think of.

    My wife would actually like that... next to the "Live Nudes" neon sign we have by the bar.

    Next month she is attending a 2 Day Burlesque Workshop... I love my wife!

    Thats good, now where to find one?? Would Frys carry that?

    Hey, a friend just called me with tickets to Sunday's Cowboy Game, said he will let a pair go for $300. The wife is a BIG fan, much more than I am. Would that count?

    I suspect that may still come off half-hearted. Get her the picture frame, and then suggest that she get you the tickets.

    I got one for Lee at Office Depot but I've seen them at Sam's and Wal-Mart.

    You know, year's ago, there was a hotel in Dallas that if you stayed with them the night before the game, they had a free shuttle to and from the Cowboy's game......for year's my whole family would book rooms and go to the Thanksgiving day game. I THINK it was the Harvey Hotel on 635.

    If it were me, and I was still a Cowboy's fan, I'd like a very nice dinner, a romantic night at a hotel and someone else driving us to the game so I could drink lots of overpriced beer.
