Lying Liars

My wife is great, but sometimes, a little naive. She can be pragmatic and then flighty. Maybe that’s why I love her. In any case, we were coming home from dinner on Friday night and we got into a discussion about the Presidential race. She is firmly convinced that Barack Obama is not to be [...]
