Thank God,most of us have a better half that puts up with our audio/video habits.My wife being one of them.But lets talk about their wacky fetish's.Mine has a few....World cup soccer.....don't talk to her when Brazil or Italy are playing.Sports???She puts most men to shame.Knows way more than I,or any of my friends do about football,baseball,soccer etc.So,she takes my car to work every day,I only drive it on weekends.I get in,go to turn on some tunes in the cdp,FIRST disc,Bruce Springsteen,2nd disc,same,3rd disc,bruce,4th,
5th,and 6th disc,yep,Bruce again.Maybe all you Jersey people understand,
She is a Bruce nut.Been to 19 of his concerts,has every thing he has ever put out.Drives me crazy.I like Bruce,not his politics,but his music is good.
What strange things are your better halves hooked on???:)

    Chocolate. About the same time each month too. I think that's just part of having two X chromosomes though, not a fetish really.
