Ask Boomer Al
Issue #59; September 8, 2003

Dear Al
My wife wants to have plastic surgery. She thinks she has a big nose and it bothers her.

I say she looks fine and I love her just the way she is. We can afford it. What do you think? Thanks.
Ray

Dear Ray
I’m sure your wife is very appreciative of your support. This, however, isn’t as much for you as it is for her. It’s like if you insisted on a hair piece, for example, she would no doubt insist you look great to her just the way you are also. We all have our little vanities don’t we?

As money isn’t an issue in this case I don’t see the harm if it will help her feel better about herself. It may turn out to be quite a positive event for your marriage. A happy wife feeling good about herself and her relationship is indeed a blessing.

My only caution is to be sure to select the surgeon carefully. This is major surgery requiring one to be under general anesthesia with the associated risks. I would definitely consult with your family doctor, if you indeed have one, to get guidance and a referral.

When it’s done be sure and take her out for a new outfit and a complete day of beauty at her favorite salon. If you can’t bring yourself to be supportive keep your nose out of it. Sorry. I had to.
Al

Dear Boomer Al
We have friends who live in Florida that are getting married after living together for a time. They want my husband and me to attend and be in the wedding.

The problem is they are nudists and they say everyone in and at the wedding will be naked. They are very close friends and we don’t want to hurt them. My husband said we would wear swimsuits. Help!
What do you think?
Gloria

Dear Gloria
Here we go again! I’ll get ten letters from people who will say “don’t knock it ‘till you’ve tried it!”

Here’s my take. This isn’t news to you that they are nudists if you’re such good friends. I can’t think of anything more unpleasant than having to look at fat relatives with no clothes on at a wedding. My God! Can you imagine the dance floor? Would the bride dance with her father in the nude? How about the groom with his naked mother? It’s the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. Obviously this will not be a family affair. Imagine your kids wanting to see mom and dad’s wedding album?

People who are nuts enough to have a nude wedding will not be offended by your not participating. It no doubt will be in a nudist colony of some type and they would frown on your swimsuits.

There’s another side to it also. Mosquitoes are big in the news down here right now. With our wet summer mosquito born diseases are at an all-time high and caution is in order. If I were a mosquito and flew into a nude wedding I’d think I died and went to bug heaven. Talk about happy hour!

_.·´¯)What's up with this?(¯`·._

More time has passed and things in Iraq sem to be progressing on some fronts and getting worse on others. It is painfully obvious at this point that most Iraqis are content to sit by and watch us struggle to rebuild their country while many of them give aid and comfort to their former oppressors, not to mention protect foreign fighters who continue to seep into the borders.

Perhaps this is becoming a battle ground for the terrorist community. If so we should take off the gloves, not worry about world opinion and kick some serious butt. Failing that we should challenge our NATO allies to step up to the plate. The UN is a wimpy organization that is politically corrupt in my opinion.

NFL football started this week. My favorite time of the year. Go Patriots. I do feel however that it will take several games for that secondary to find itself. Buffalo is much improved and the signing of Milloy will give them the defensive intelligence they need to hand the Patriots their butts this week. I hope I'm wrong.

It will be great fun watching the Giants and Cowboys this season after the name calling. :)

Just my opinion. Don't like it? So tell me off at ...
