Title: Wife wants to see what a jet roost looks like
Post by: electrowoman on August 18, 2008, 06:26:56 AM: Would you guys do me a favor and post your roost pictures. I'm working on my wife
to get her to agree to buying a place diverter. It's easier to explain new things when they agree ahead of time :D

I told her what fun it would be to scatter the lake lice and she just doesn't believe the water will go UP.

Thank you!

It touches all the feminine needs, your being considerate to her shopping gene by giving her more cash in her pocket, and your not getting a guy-toy in order to show off.

Cool video. From the angle it was shot those almost look like little RC boats.
