I'm at the end of my proverbial rope, and it's tightening around my neck as we speak!

My anniversary with my wife was a week ago. We've been married for nearly sixty years, now. I have no idea what to get her. I've been putting off the giving of the gift itself by taking her out to dinner, to the ballet - oh, she pretends that she notices nothing,

I congratulate you and your beloved on those sixty years.

If your wife has an appreciation for nature... we at Hazakura Temple deep in the Eagle Mountains offer a spiritual cleansing course that promotes longevity and vitality. It's highly recommended for seniors.

A spiritual cleansing course? That does sound promising. What would that entail?

First, you will be put on a diet consisting entirely of an ancient herbal tea blend, honey, and milt, to purify your body. Next, to strengthen your soul... a three-mile barefoot hike down to the river, where you will release one of your valued possessions in the rushing waters to free yourself of the burden of material goods. You will then step into it... unclothed, just as you were born, to be one with the forces of nature as you meditate for one minute per every three years you've walked on this earth.

That is day one of the three-day course.

...I will definitely keep that in mind. Yes ... yes indeed.

... If you want a gift to be special... it should be something you make... with your own two hands...

Happy anniversary Mr. Judge...
