  32. Oh you have to satch that one. My brother had the touch too. I remember one time when we were in high school and Mom was mad at him. She left to go play cards, he wanted something and my Father was smart enough NOT to give permission and my brother called her. This was the conversation:
    On the PHONE:
    Hi Mom, did I mention you look lovely tonight? Can .....

    She fell for it! Mad at me and Dad for another week.

    Enjoy.
