Jerry,

That just about gave me coronary from laughing so hard. Too funny!

At the risk of sounding like Dr. Phil, Sheena. The marriage part was easy. Staying in love is the tough part.

Thanks to you all for helping to make this day, one to remember.

Sheena,

Thanks for the card BTW. That was very thoughtful of you and very much appreciated.

Yep, i know, i know. And even that one is not the toughest one (IMHO). Understanding each other & being able to... you know, "tame" one's ego in the name of love. Oh well... enough "theory" & "brain work", otherwise it may get too sad.

And who's Dr Phil, BTW? (yep, a stupid question - i knoooow...Image)

Sorry Sheena,

I should have known that you would have no idea who Dr. Phil is. Dr. Phil is an expert in matters of the heart among other things here in North America.

Well - no problem! Some people here would say, "Ah, the American "version" of Dr. Kurpatov". Or vice versa. Image

Sheena,

I have only watched Dr. Phil a couple of times. He is actually very perceptive and he provides very practical common sense advice.

I would not like a steady diet of his show but...I guess what I am trying to say is that it was OK for me, in fact just barely OK. That's all. I could not watch him every day.

I presume your Dr. Kurpatov is somewhat similar?

Yep. A well-known (here) psychologist who runs his own TV show. Interesting sometimes, sometimes just a TV show, you know, and i got a bit bored after watching a few. But i have an impression his guests are in fact "ex-patients" - mean, their problems were solved earlier, and on TV, he's just demonstrating "how it's done". A fairly young guy, BTW - i'd guess in his mid/late 30s or early 40s.
