If you don't like what she's wearing, buy her something you like, win/win. Try Chanel #5. WIN/WIN

I read that to the Mrs and she didn't get it. go figure! :) My friend Richard OTOH is laughing his a$$ off! :w00t:

Thats all she'll put on... and it smells to 7th high heaven. If she only didn't use so much! Like a pig farmer gettin used to the smell of pig crap, and not noticing any more, thats how it is with her and her Youth Dew.

In the meantime, I'm sitting here enjoying a nice Wild Turkey 101 and gingerale, wearing some PB Blaster, just for effect.

My wife is only allowed to wear perfume I choose for her and only when and as much as I'll let her. Back when she was my girlfriend, still had some free will, and wasn't completely dependent on my money she had a bit more freedom to do what she wanted.

Well I'll tell ya, extremely driven, strong willed women are a handful, like trying to tame a wild horse, you gotta break 'em down and rebuild 'em piece by piece. They're also not worth a damn for nookie, but ya know, any port hole in storm, n'est pas?

... not worth a damn for nookie, ....

True story. I never thought about where the term nookie came from but now i think i know. One day wife is cooking dinner and and i ask what it is. She said pasta. I looked at it and said what kind is that? She said "Gnocchi" (pronounced nookie). I looked at her, looked at the pasta again and said yep, that's what it looks like. Well she ain't from here so she never caught on to what i meant. Next day she carries some of this pasta to work to share with her co-workers. She worked with a bunch of old ladies at the time. They looked at it and asked what it is. She says nookie. She said they all turned to her and looked over the top of their glasses at her. She told them it was really good.

After work she comes home and tells me about her day and their expression when she told them what it was. I asked her if she knew why? She said she thought maybe they thought it wouldnt be good. I pulled out the pasta and told her look at that pasta and tell me what part of the female anatomy that looked like and then i told here about the slang word nookie. She busted out laughing and said no wonder they looked at her like that. I told her dont worry if they don't like it, I have always liked it.

For those that havent seen it look here.

I got lots of responses to that, but think I should probably keep them to myself.:blushing:

The term "nookie" originates from Leica camera. Leica was the first 35mm camera, ever, and made a small empire before Zeiss got into the game with their own cameras... later the Japanese.

Leica offered a seemingly endless array of accessories for their camera, which evolved from fixed lens and external viewfinder, to exchangable lenses and viewfinders, to the same with built in viewfinder for the normal lens, and finally to a very advanced viewfinder with frames that show the field of view for lenses of medium-wide through medium telephoto. Leica's are great. I've got three.

Anyway... back in the day, orders placed with E.Leitz, Wetzlar Germany, would go via Telex (or a non-networked, point to point predecessor). To make things easy, every item - cameras, lenses, filters, and every accessory, had a 5 letter designator. These were like BAVRR, and NOADB, and were seemingly chosen at random. The TELEX designator for the extreme close up attachment, was NOOKY. Any time you want to get "close up", its nooky (or nookie).

I dunno how true that is, but I was in the biz for years, and it was more or less "common knowledge" way back in the 70's, that Leica came up with the term.
