Wednesday’s Virtual Mail comes from Dan:

I love to cook for my girlfriend, and I make her dinner about three or four times a week.  

But whenever I do, she does something that absolutely drives me nuts:  She salts it before she even tastes it.

And it’s not just my food.  She salts everything without trying it first:  Popcorn at the movies . . . meals at restaurants . . . even her oatmeal.

 Doesn’t she realize how RUDE that is? Why do people put salt on their food before they even taste it?

Wednesday’s Virtual Mailbag comes from Sarah:

I’m getting married in September and I’m stressing out over the guest list.  My parents divorced two years ago, and my father wants to invite his girlfriend to my wedding.  This is a sore topic for my mom, because she believes my dad cheated on her…with his current girlfriend.  My mom calls her “the slutty mistress” and doesn’t want her anywhere near the wedding, let alone near her.  My dad insists that she’s not a “mistress,” and he wants her included in our family occasion.

I know it will be awkward for my mom, but I don’t have a problem with my dad’s girlfriend. He doesn’t want her ostracized by the family anymore because he says things are getting serious between the two of them.  However, I know my mom will be miserable at my wedding if she’s there, and it’s just going to put a dark cloud over my wedding day. 

Help!  What do I do? Do I not invite my dad’s girlfriend out of respect to my mom, or do I ask my mom to suck it up, out of respect to my dad? How do I choose?

This is NOT a children’s book for your kids….this is for YOU, the parent fed up with your kids’ endless torture they create during bedtime.

Samuel L. Jackson narrated a bedtime story called Go the [$#@!] to Sleep 

 It’s written like a children’s book, but from a frustrated parent’s perspective….oh, and it’s LITTERED with profanity.  So, no, this is NOT for lil’ Susie’s bedtime.  More like for mom and dad after Susie’s asleep.

Samuel L Jackson’s narration makes this book PRICELESS: (click here to hear…WARNING: this is NOT mom-approved!)

Wednesday’s Virtual Mail comes from Jerry, who’s not happy with his sister making him look cheap in front of their Dad:

 My sister makes a lot more money than I do, so she can afford really cool, expensive stuff. But I live paycheck to paycheck, and I’m really careful about how I spend my money.

 For Father’s Day, my sister is getting my dad an iPad.  I was going to get him a book. 

 I asked my sister to scale back her present, so mine doesn’t look lame.  But she won’t do it.

 I just know my dad is going to like her gift way more than he’ll like mine.  Should my sister get him a less expensive gift for my sake?  Is she trying to show me up?

# # #

Ahhh, sibling rivalry.  And nothing like Mother’s and Father’s Day to compete for your parents’ love. 

How much do you think is an appropriate amount to spend on Dad? 
SHOULD Jerry’s sis offer to split the gift, or get something less expensive?

We’ll talk to Jerry Wednesday morning @ 7:45 on The Wake Up Call with Eric & Selena.  Help Jerry with your calls….#1-800-570-1013.

When you are sent on a business trip, usually your company pays for the travel.  When we go to Nashville, FROGGY 101 covers the cost of shipping the equipment for our live broadcasts.  These soldiers shouldn’t have to pay out of pocket for their checked baggage/equipment, but I’m surprised the military doesn’t cover the expense, let alone the airlines….

Digging in Wednesday’s Virtual Mailbag, we help Josh, who writes:

Every year my wife and her friends get together and have a “girls weekend.”  I never knew what went down at these get-togethers, but my wife always comes back refreshed and happy, so I never cared.  Until now.

Last week a ton of pictures popped up on Facebook of my wife getting hammered and partying with these Jersey Shore -looking, shirtless guys.  In one picture, two guys are kissing her face. 

I know she didn’t cheat on me, but it’s not cool that I’m finding pictures on Facebook of random guys kissing my wife. She said it was no big deal and I’m acting jealous for no reason.  I think she should take the pictures down, don’t you?

###

 Would you be upset if your spouse was drunk and partying with the opposite sex…what if you learned about it for the first time by seeing the pics on Facebook? 
Should Josh’s wife apologize; was it disrespetful to their marriage, or is Josh over reacting?

Today’s Virtual Mailbag comes from Gary, who writes to The Wake Up Call:

When I first met my girlfriend, I was attracted to her beautiful long hair. I’m a big fan of long hair, but for some reason, she decided to chop it off.  It’s short.  Softball catcher SHORT.

She loves it, but I think it looks terrible.  Honestly, I’m not as attracted to her now.  She looks like a completely different person.  Kinda manly.

She says she’ll eventually grow her hair long again, but it will take months.  Any advice in the meantime, or is it pointless to be with someone you’re not attracted to?

I surprised the hubby with an adventure for our 2nd wedding anniversary — a Segway Tour through Jim Thorpe. 

So much fun, Ethan didn’t even mind the fancy helmet!

Highly recommend it — we had a lot of fun whizzing through the historic town and up Flagstaff Mountain on the ingenious and effortless standup-scooter.  It took about a minute to get used to balancing on the Segway, and then we were touring the town like pros!  Nothing like a wonderful breeze on a hot day as you travel 12 mph.

Here we are at the top of Flagstaff Mountain, about 8 miles from the the start of the Segway tour in Jim Thorpe (behind and below us).

A few hours in Jim Thorpe felt like a perfect vacation.  Sometimes, just a day trip is all you need to reset your hectic schedule.
