    So my beloved wife of 15 years is currently taking computer programming. This is a deadly combination; you have a spouse who knows you well, has no problem having fun at your expense, AND can mess with content on a computer!

    Case in point was this morning. I popped over to the Omega website, then left to do something. She jumped over, cached the page, altered the "Special Deals" banner, then left it up. Imagine my reaction when I saw...

    :confused::eek::confused::eek:
    (PS: minus the WARNING disclaimer, which I personally added for this post)
    (PSS: this apparently is not illegal as she says cached content is not live. I imagine programmers apparently have a lot of fun doing this to their spouses :p)

    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go rearrange her shoe collection :D

    Hmmmm, she could have tried to score herself a Tresor by using that instead of a NATO.

    Maybe she thinks a Tresor is a waste of $$.

    I really expected something pithy from @ulackfocus for this comment, knowing what a lover of Seedmeisters he is.

    If you ever want to pull this prank on a fellow friend, I think all you need to do is just inspect element (assuming you are using chrome) and then edit the pertinent lines of HTML in order to change the appearance of the page.

    At first I thought your wife wrote the "Not Real do not take this seriously" and had to look at the screenshot a few times before I saw the joke.

    Wife Humor :whistling:

    Was doing the washing last night in the hotel I'm staying,in Okinawa. I pulled a pair of bikini briefs out of the dryer mixed in with my clothes. ( dryers too high to look in and last user must have left them in )
    Would have been funny if they made it into my bag and home.............

    Hah you got off easy.
    I had to buy a whole "closet system" and then install it!
    Full disclosure, my wife used to be a clothing designer for a decently high-end company so she ended up with a lot of "free", but very nice stuff.
    Luckily, she has been thinning it out...

    Normally I would just say...eh, Australia...everything wants to kill you. But being from Florida...the land of more Alligators than people, I must say here is one area we compete. Friends come to visit and ask..."Is there an Alligator in that pond?" Yes. "How do you know?" Because every pond has an Alligator. "How come I don't see one?".......and I say....get closer.

    Fair call, but salties are a heap more aggressive ;)

    Range of saltwater crocodiles is quite vast,

    I'd say this is teaching bad habits, but I imagine your average Croc knows "plump and Juicy" when he he sees it regardless.
