Pretty funny! I alwasy say a perfect weekened would involve going climbing one day, then to a quilt show the next day.

I am in the same situation with NW. I am a wife and the only one in our family with an SP account. DH doesn't hate SP, doesn't mind the time I spend here and hasn't even checked out what I have posted there.

I must put in though that I think his brain starts to shut me out sometimes as I go on and on about possible trip details and routes etc. But that's probably just normal married behavior!! :p Can't blame that on SP!

Today for example I spent a few hours this morning working out an expense list for a trip to the Cirque of the unclimbables. When I showed him he told me there was something wrong with me! Haha! But do you know what I hear in that response? I don't hear a no..... hmm, maybe I do have something wrong with me...

Chalk me up as another victim of Bad Bob Sihler and his invention of the word "Summitporn." My wife glanced over at the screen one day and saw that word in the thread headline, and she's been bandying it around gleefully ever since ...

Does anybody remember the Elvin Bishop song, "I ain't seen my wife for three or four years; I'm a happily married man!"?

"I must have been through about a million girls,
I'd love 'em then I'd leave 'em alone.
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir..
Their tears left me cold as a stone. (on SP)
But then I fooled around and fell in love,
I fooled around and fell in love ... yes I did..."

My girl friend does not mind it as long as I'm not on it when she comes over to hang out. A few uncomfortable situations have started that way believe it or not. (The good old not enough quality time speech)

She got worked up when she saw the "Hottest Chick Alive thread". I just say that's for the immature people on SP....

This is very reminiscent of your "Summit Porn" page Bob. That was you no?

My wife used to hate SP, but I spend very little time here lately.

No, it's for the "older (mature) men" on SP who haven't got ANY for awhile.

Yuk, yuk..

As much as I wish that I had, I did not invent the term. I first heard it from Dean, and Scott claims to have coined it. I just immortalized it.

When my old lady wants a rest, she logs me on to SP.
