1. Two times a week, we go to a nice restaurant, have a little beverage, then comes good food and companionship. She goes on Tuesdays, I go on Fridays.
2. We also sleep in separate beds. Hers is in Ontario and mine is in Tucson.
3. I take my wife everywhere, but she keeps finding her way back.
4. I asked my wife where she wanted to go for our anniversary. "Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said. So I suggested the kitchen.
5. We always hold hands. If I let go, she shops.
6. She has an electric blender, electric toaster and electric bread maker. Then she said "There are too many gadgets and no place to sit down!" So I bought her an electric chair.
7. My wife told me the car wasn't running well because there was water in the carburetor. I asked where the car was, she told me "In the Lake."
8. She got a mudpack and looked great for two days. Then the mud fell off.
9. She ran after the garbage truck, yelling "Am I too late for the garbage?" The driver said "No, jump in!"
10. Remember. Marriage is the number one cause of divorce.
11. I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her first name was Always.
12. I haven't spoken to my wife in 18 months. I don't like to interrupt her.
13. The last fight was my fault. My wife asked "What's on the TV?" I said "Dust!"

Cause that's just how I roll.
Decided the Compamy owes me a chrimbo present so ordered a new laptop (DELL Precision m4800). First one I've had that supported 3 screens at the same time. It's great untill you lose where the Mouse Pointer is.

I'm capable of losing the mouse pointer with a single screen and not so big 
I also have pretty bad experiences with multi-desktop (linux way), or better, multi-terminal. I learnt that
telinit 1 isn't a good command to send remotely - I wanted to turn MY machine in single user but did it in the wrong console.
I guess I'm no multitasking man

Nice! 
You can set Windows up to emit a ring around the mouse pointer when you hit Ctrl, pretty handy for when you lose it!

I've got the same laptop (DELL Precision m4800). and running with 3 screens too. I imagine our layout is extremely similar, question is what is your laptop screen used for?
I'm currently running stuff that is always useful at a glance on my laptop (emails, builds, tests) etc..

It's a beast isn't it.

Only just got it so still trying things out. As it is the least prominent screen I have been mainly using it for no-work related stuff such as CP.

Pfftt..... Amateur..... 
I am running 4 1920x1080 23" monitors attached to my machine. We actually have an application that runs across multiple monitors, hence the business need for it (so I didn't have to pay for them).

If we're going to be comparing... 
I had 3 24" 1920x1200 monitors, until one died about 2 months ago...which I replaced with a 27" 1920x1080--the loss of those extra 120 pixels vertically is a lot more evident than I had thought possible.
If I had the video hardware that could handle it, I'd replace one or two with a 4K monitor...although nothing under at least 34" or so, as text just gets too small and you have to rescale everything, which means you're just wasting pixels.

Got me a Dell M6500 -
Screens? I got a big one.
Your ménage à trois sounds - well - (KSS Censor invoked).
Since I have it to move around I keep it to the one screen. Two HDD's is really neat for a laptop.

Absolutely, I think whoever gets this should supply the CCC tomorrow, and then the solver of that does the next one etc, etc,until Dave loses to UKIP and comes back.

Seriously, if there's any chance of him winning, I'm on the next plane back to cast my vote! (I leave it to the reader's imagination to decide which way I would vote!)
** Interesting note. While typing the above I debated long and hard (oh! err!) about whether to italicise 'which' or 'way'. The net meaning remains the same, but they sound subtly different - interesting for its own sake. Well, I though so, anyway.

From what I understand it's a forgone conclusion he will win. He's standing in a Tory seat that is always won by the Tories. Your vote won't make a difference.

Depends how bangy his 'vote' is.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I think you'll find he's standing in Labour seat as a sacrificial goat to the Sun God Ra 'Call Me' Dave.

I thought he had already done that and in return was given a safe seat?
