sure glad i don't live in Norway.i'm Swedish, so don't take offense about my remark. i believe the one reason that i've been married for so long, is that the wife and me do have the ability to compromise, and we try not to take everything so seriously.

McVarmit (or mcvarmit!): I'm so happy that y'all were able to work it out. That's the way it's supposed to be, and all too seldom is. Way to go.

Semper fi,

And as compromise you'll pay 10 grand on kilts, right?

Living in Norway is fantastic. Hehe, no offense taken

Yepp, compromise is the word - so if this was us, we'd end up with me ordering another kilt, and my wife ordering the Harley...

PS With 883 Sportster starting at $20,000 over here, I wouldn't have a bad conscience ordering a couple of kilts.

hold out for a Fat Boy...

I'd say "No."
You could offer a few bargains of your own.

ah ten HUT

Kilt .... ON

mr. cossack,
compromise is a wonderful thing, especially if you come out ahead on the deal!

Mr.3359,
actually if i had 10 k, which i don't, i'd buy a sportster, for the wife. good wives are hard to come by.

Mr. Porrick,
i like the way your wife's mind works, i'd bet she would look great on a sportster, with you on the back wearing a kilt, don't you just role reversals?
