"THE NO PRINCIPLE" (February, 2005)

I came from a very strict background. Both my parents separated well before I was born. I was raised by my mother until I was 12, and then my father took over. I thought I would get off light.

WRONG-O!!!

My father was the kind of disciplinarian who studied the "no principle" in our house...NO drinking!...NO smoking!!...NO gambling!!!...NO girlfriends in the bedroom!!!!

Now that I'm married and have a son and a daughter, I plan to continue this principle in my household. I have an appointment for gelding next month. That means...NO sex!!!!!

I told my wife about my plan. She said, "If you go ahead with it, you can count on a sixth rule to the 'no principle'...NO more marriage!!!!!!"
