now - before you answer the way every other woman on the planet would, please read this entire e-mail:
next weekend, they are having the annual "wife carrying world championships" in finland.
here is a link talking about the competition. notice what the winner gets: his wife's weight IN BEER! it also mentions that those that "drop" their wife - lose 15 points. ok - so either of you are my wife (or both - we could move to utah where no one would complain) - and i drop you. honestly - if all i lost was 15 points i'd be tickled pink for i know once either of you picked herself off the ground - that is where i will soon end up - or worse. if we didn't already have kids - odds are we never would for my guess is when all was said and done to me - it wouldn't be a pretty sight.

after reading how last year's couple won it - i sense this should be taped and aired on Spice or Vivid Video:

look on far left - find the words "wife carrying" and you will get this in english:

i sense either of you would make an ideal person to do this with - for you both are super thin (even if they aren't - like they would admit it here - NOT!) so having you on my back wouldn't really make that much of a difference or slow you down much. however the contest now specifies all women must weigh AT LEAST 49 kilograms - or about 107 pounds. i realize this means either of you would have to gain about 10-15 pounds in 1 week - but if you put your mind to it - i know you can do it!
so, ladies, does this change your answer? i sense it will. i know the rules say any woman over 17 can do this (meaning you make this age requirement by about a year, or two) and she doesn't have to be your wife - but after reading how last year's couple won it - i can't see either of you doing that same thing to anyone NOT being your hubby (for the record - if you are willing to do that to someone NOT your hubby - come time for the vegas party august 16 - we REALLY need to meet a few hours earlier than usual!). the competition runs july 4-5 so we would have to do it ASAP. just send me an e-mail (angelle you have it) and we can run off to vegas, get a quickie (wedding - that is) and catch a flight to helsinki in time for friday's start. as for everyone else - wish us luck!
when we win - since vegas is within driving distance for me - i will bring all the beer we won to the party for all to share!
