Prenup, $5 fee for nagging, and a secret divorce (state of marriage....)
(and people whine about gay marriage????)

Woman Suing Ex-Husband For Divorcing Her In Secret

POSTED: 4:34 pm EST January 4, 2006

SANFORD, Fla. -- Sally Erickson and Renzie Davidson thought they had the secret to marital bliss. But the eccentric list of demands outlined in their prenuptial agreement, which included mandatory backrubs and a $5 fee for nagging, still couldn't save their marriage.

Now Erickson, 61, is suing Davidson, 62, for allegedly divorcing her in secret more than two years ago, according to Seminole County court records.

Before saying 'I do' in 2001, the Florida couple agreed to a quirky prenuptial agreement. Erickson, a mental-health counselor, promised to cook breakfast a minimum of three times during the weekdays, and once on the weekends, according to the document.

"In return, Davidson will not wake Sally up on her 'off days,"' the document said.

2. I get the idea of prenups.
I get the idea of protecting property or family money and all that.

But backrubs? Breakfasts?

I'd say they were doomed from the start. Freaks.

3. Always remember the nutsiest stories always involve FLORIDA!
Even before I saw "the Florida couple" I knew this one could only come out of Florida. There is a reason Keith Olbermann gave them a special "nod" in his end of year round up.

4. It is almost as if these two really should be together
Save some other women and man from them.
