"Happily married?"

I don't think so...

Bank robbery suspect: Incarceration beats living with wife

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — A 70-year-old man accused of robbing a bank in Kansas told investigators he would rather be imprisoned than living with his wife.

Court documents say Lawrence John Ripple gave a note to a bank teller in Kansas City on Friday, demanding cash and warning he had a gun. Ripple took the money and went to sit in the lobby where he told a guard he was the “guy he was looking for.”

Officers arrived quickly. An FBI agent wrote in the affidavit that Ripple had earlier been arguing with his wife. He told investigators he wrote the note in front of his wife, telling her he would “rather be in jail than at home.”

Reminds me of my neighbor

She screams at him when she's drunk. Front yard back yard doesn't matter the whole neighborhood has to hear it.

She is constantly putting him down to anyone that will listen and she is cheating on him at work

Gives me lots to be grateful for
