Re: Mind's Eye Re: Is Wagner Bad For Us?

wow because I don't understand or like Wagner it has turned into a pick on men day..
I know when when women get together for a good old fashion gossip session it is now called networking ..  guess I am not to bright as I am still trying to figure out how  in 1934 I came up with a massive amount (several tons) of Gold the belonged to the US Treasury that I robbed from a shipment in 2014. Or at least they say I did it because my fingerprints were all over the place..  The problem is it was an air shipment,,   in flight and I was at home sleeping with my wife..
Oh well I must ;earn to accept what I can change or understand woman and dreams are two of them..
