Dear Mitchell - I have created this blog today to save both of our marriages. It seems that the two of us can not agree on anything. While I find our banter to be witty and amusing our spouses do not. I have created this outlet to eleavate the constant eyerolling and sighing from our significant others.
Personally, I don't understand why you constantly argue with me. I am always right; I mean look at my diploma, I earned it. Furthermore, I am a woman; that fact alone should make you back down. Lastly, as you pointed out very clearly at Jack Johnson, I am opinionated. Opinionated people don't sway from their side of the issue.
Quite frankly Mitch, you forget that you are opinionated too. You can't stand when your opinion isn't the only opinion in the room. Without me you would be bored and living in a world where the sky is purple.
On second thought, shouldn't we let bygones be bygones and agree to disagree and all that jazz???? Nah, what is the fun in that. I find you to be a very amusing oponent; so Mitch, I invite you to put up your dukes (or dooks) and let the games begin...

Why should I retort? (sigh)
But if you insist....
Dear Hillary - The reality is as a woman with an "earned" degree (would the alternative be bought?) you are entitled to an opinion. Its unfortunate that women's opinions these days don't quite count as a full opinion. In this case, on the fact mere of the 'Bring it On/Gilmore Girls" tone you use. I guess it's true that the squeaky Heel gets the grease.
Amusing you say? I find it amusing that said degree and said genitalia entitle thee as a marriage counselor? To say this is going to save our marriages would imply said marriages are in peril. I know Greg loves you as you love him, so why would your marriage need saving? If Katie can forgive my earlier 'woman' comment, I'd venture to say that our marriage wouldn't need any saving either.
So I still sit here confused. Not only about why I'm typing at 11:54p, but moreover why is this hostility aimed at me? How did it go from 'hey Steph, you should start a blog - you've got an opinion," to Mitch and Stephanie Argue.com .net .org? I've got nothing but love for you. I always have. I like to hear your wheel spin. I also like when you get fired up, but the reality is I like to hear your passion for things - that is amusing. I agree that we disagree and I like that about us.
With that, my love, I leave you with some Haiku:
Skies MAY be purple
NEVER really Tarheel blue.
Roy Williams is gay.
Much love- mitch
PS - please note that I intentionally didn't connect the whole "school - degree" thing together with you spelling 'oponent' wrong in your ramblings as I wasn't sure if that was from UNC, Myers Park, or Sedgefield.
Good point Mitch, our marriages do not need saving that is very true. I should have rephrased and stated that our tireless banter should be held in cyberspace instead of the dinner table in hopes that our significant others will continue to enjoy our company when we are together...
As far as the women's opinion comment is concerned; that only makes me giggle. I would bet that 80% of your decisions are based on what your wife would WANT you to do; therefore, even though women aren't as outspoken as men, they still get their point across.
Normally I choose to remain silent during a Mitch-Stephenie discussion, and if I have had too much to drink I would go outside with Greg and sneak a cigarette...unfortunately it is only 3pm and I am working and therefore sober, and I am SO EXCITED that my cigarette bumming machine (Greg) has quit smoking (WAY TO GO!).
All of that aside, I had to comment - STEPHENIE --> AMEN on the women comment! Don't you find it amusing that men think their opinions count more...don't they realize that 80% of each opinion they have comes directly from our ability to influence their subconscience! Ha!
Lewie - i also love that he mentions my spelling error, yet i don't even bring up the fact that he spelled MY NAME WRONG.
