    Funny, we ran into the "dumper" not that long ago and, since I'm so happy, I'll be kind. I'll just say he's upgraded. Significantly. He hates to admit I'm right about anything but he has conceded it on this point several times.

    He didn't go there OR to Jared. Lots of "he went to Jared" comments on Facebook, which is fine. But he didn't go to Jared.

    Or Mervis.

    Or my wallet, thankfully.

    I'm more interested in the ring box.

    And congratulations and whatnot. Pretty soon, we'll be calling you "Gramps."

    It's the old cliche that you never believe until it happens to you...

    Congratulations!

    Now, are you going to tell the joke about the old Jewish guy and the 20-year-old twins? Not sure I know that one.

    An 85-year-old man wanders into a Catholic church and heads to the confessional. A priest comes in and says, "What's on your mind, sir?"

    The old man says he's been married 65 years to a wonderful, fabulous woman. Loves her as much as they day they were married. And he's always been faithful.

    "But yesterday," he said, "these two gorgeous 20-year-olds, blonde twins, come up to me on the street. They say they have this fantasy about an old man. So we go to a hotel and my goodness, I have my way with both of them. Every which way you can imagine. All afternoon and well into the night. I felt like a kid again. It was marvelous. Didn't know I had it in me."

    Well, the priest said, normally I'd have a stronger feeling about this. But you've been a good, faithful husband for so long. One slip in all that time? Give me three Hail Marys and we'll call it good.

    "What's a Hail Mary?" the old man said.

    "What's a Hail Mary? Really? Aren't you Catholic?"

    "No, I'm Jewish."

    "So why are you in here telling me this?"

    "Hell, Father, I'm telling EVERYBODY!!"
