I’m unsure if opposites attract but I’m convinced same is boring and uninteresting. The woman I’m married to “gets” me, as much as that is possible, but we rarely agree. The big stuff like raising our three daughters, showing love, not killing hobos for thrills; we have that down. But other “smaller” things, like music, how men and women communicate, writing, and many other areas we seem to bicker. It makes our relationship tick and us click.
Deana aka Bobina aka @deana_bo, tossed an idea against the wall and it stuck. She wants to write a weekly relationship column on her blog, and let me help her answer people’s questions. This isn’t an advice deal. In fact, if we try to offer advice, report us to Al Gore or Al Jazeera, or whoever is running the internet these days. This is a point/counter point discussion, sort of like Dan vs. Jane Curtin on Saturday Night Live in the mid 1970s. Except at the end of each post, Bobina will likely call me an ignorant slut.
Send questions or discussion topics to Bobina’s email – deanaburson@yahoo.com and we, ok, she, will pick two, and we will tackle them. This will happen every Wednesday morning before 8am eastern. So, that means you have two days to get your queries in for this week. If you don’t want to question us, then feel free to watch the train wreck over and over again and use her comment section.

One of my favorite Beatles songs is from my favorite Beatles album, Revolver. It’s about taking acid, and the “She” in the song is Peter Fonda. But, I have a feeling this writing event will take on a John Lennon snark quality and She Said She Said will be how it’s remembered.
I’m getting my popcorn ready, this is gonna be epic.
to you, maybe.
I’ve got my camp chair set up to watch the fireworks.
get a question/topic in….then chair
Im so excited to do this!
Love this idea. Can’t wait to read!
Looking forward to the mayhem!
I’ve always loved that song but I had no idea about the acid.
Or the Fonda.
See.
I’m learning from you already.
Good luck with the weekly feature – GREAT idea.
Looking forward to seeing what happens…
i sent you the sanitized version of the she said she said songh story on your book of face…but the deal was, lennon took a bunch of acid, got freaked out by Peter Fonda and wondered if he’d ever be normal again..
and thank you
Oh boy! I sent a question.
reading now…ugh…decorating. be careful at IKEA. the abba songs will make you do weird things.
I’m pretty sure this is going to be my favorite blog ever. Seriously. And FYI, I already agree with Deana on all the potential questions.
i figured as much…have fun with it, tomorrow
Tom and I agree about the thrill of killing hobos, but it’s the HOW to kill them that get us bickering nonstop!
exactly…poison, fire, whatever.
You should provide some questions.
