    I like the title 'trophy wife'...she must be a real catch!

    The sad association I have with Slit Skirts is the realization that I'm older than the song's protagonist.

    My wife has met one of my high school crushes -- very definitely not looking like trailer trash but philosophically and politically in a much different place. The song association I had with her was the Police's "Can't Stand Losing You" because her brother, like the brother Sting mentions, was freakishly tall.

    Did she scratch all your records? You know, "And my LP records and they're all scratched."

    Meeting an ex-crush is an odd thing. I think Vrab is right: high school wasn't the best of times for many folks. Years ago, I spoke to an old crush (from junior high and high school) on the phone, and during the course of the conversation I kept thinking "What the hell did I see in her?"
