“Bagged and tagged” means dead (body bag) and in the morgue (toe tag for ID). You do explore the damnedest subjects, Helen, things men might ponder, but certainly keep to themselves. They’d joke about it, though. Here’s a classic: “You never know what happiness is until you’re married. And then it’s too late.”

Never thought I’d see a woman ‘go there’ as often or as fearlessly as you do. I can’t see YOU being intimidated by single men.

I think the best defense against intrusions on one’s marriage is to love the opposite sex – and your spouse most of all. Of course, that makes one vulnerable and open to all kinds of attack and pain. As we get older, we look for ways to shield ourselves from pain, and love is often the first casualty. Then the problems start.
