[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 323413, member: 1514"] In Corys younger years, and still to some degree today...he was infamous for taking either a "maybe" or some other noncommittal answer as a YES. If we said something like...it would be nice if we could do XXX. He took it as gospel that we were going to do XXX and if we couldnt do XXX then there was H to pay. Or he would ask for something and if I said, well I dont know, maybe I will think about it and ask your Dad and get back to you later. He would take that to mean that I said yes and do whatever it was that he wanted to do. I didnt come right out and say NO! Even now I have to be fairly careful if I tell him I am thinking of something and preface it by saying...NOW CORY...I am only thinking of this...it doesnt mean I am going to do this...it is only in the thinking stages and my not go any further.
