Oprah's "Why Men Cheat" Controversy - Blog Entry

25 Sep 2008 05:46 AM

I think there was also another stat that lke only 7% ever come clean on their own that they cheated, and that over 50% still lie and deny they've had an affair even when confronted. I think that would be the most frustrating. Knowing in your heart of hearts he's done you wrong, but then he looks you in the face and keeps lying about it. I wonder if there's been a study done that men who come clean quicker and don't put the wives through more lies have a better road of rebuilding their marriage than those who don't.

Tristi, you raise an excellent point and one I hadn't considered: how the media may be interfering. I wonder if anyone's studied that? (They have studies noting how many times certain words and used and violence appears. I wonder if they have one about how men are treated.)

It made me think about an article I have planned for later this week that sort of might seem like it's belittling men if you take the title for face value. But I'm not.

And I like what your last paragraph said. I think that pretty much sums up the situation and how I view it too. But I really liked the way you put it! Thanks for the comment!

Life with Murphy the Cone Head - Blog Entry

Your Catzilla stories just never fail to cheer me up, Janet. Here I was in a glum mood this morning, then the tale of Catzilla trying to coerce the bunny into freeing him from his cone...well, it's just plain hard to be glum after that.

Murph's hanging in there. He doesn't seem to mind the cone too much, but the not walking out of his yard??? TORTURE! He plants himself on the curb and alternates between staring wistfully across the street and glaring at me!

Thanks for your comment.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought the shoe store commercial was lame. Thanks for sharing your views, Libby!

Mary Ann's Busted - Blog Entry

I just now stumbled across this article, Libby, and at first thought you were writing about our fellow blogger Mary Ann Romans. I was like, "What the heck did Mary Ann do? She doesn't seem like she'd ever be in trouble!" HAHAHAHHAHA Laughing now that I know it's a way different Mary Ann you had written about.

The "floaty" stage? I've never heard of that! But I think I understand what it is and you raise a most excellent point, Jade.

Yoiu know, Dale, in a way that's a very good lesson right there. Okay, so you don't always remember all the details. That's actually good, and probably why you and Mick have made it so far. You guys always keep the most important thing in mind and the rest? Well, it's all part of it, but not the most important thing. Not being able to remember has its advantages for the bad stuff is what I'm getting at. There's a lot to be said for letting go. (Of bad stuff, but holding on for the long haul.)

That is an excellent question, Jade. Short answer, no. But your question just inspired a new blog. (Go figure!)

Well I liked how YOU phrased it,Tristi: "It's not a contest we're out to win." It's funny how sometimes that's what it turns into isn't? (Well more often than not.) I am bound and determined to remember not to make it into such in the future.
