Great stories Tom. I can't remember doing anything like that, but I'm sure my wife remembers!

It works for me. Why? Because the wife and I have been together so long she knows all my tricks. So, I don't even have to tell her that I am looking at a girl. If there are a few girls around, she knows which rack I am looking at before I tell her. When you look at it all together, she will say "Yeah, right. You .....". The effect of this is to change the subject and make her laugh or forget what she was going to be irritated about. Call it a verbal slight of hand.

My wife being a third grade teacher for many years will not be distracted so easily.

She doesn't care if I look either, as long as I don't drool.

Then you are screwed.

My wife knows what I am looking at or drooling over or even touching or even being hit in the face with. She does know where my loyalties lie ultimately
