The worst one I ever did was not be able to think of my ex's name when I was
trying to introduce him to someone. It's not a long or difficult name, and
he's been a major part of my life since I was 17,  but I drew a total blank.
His name is Doug - last name the same as mine!! I was hideously embarrassed,
looked like a complete fool, people made all sorts of jokes about
sub-consciously wiping the mind after divorce and things about Feud and so
on. Even Doug looked at me a bit strangely, and he as a good sense of
humour. Not one of my shining moments.

Mine, too. I still adore the voice and enjoy the old Bond movies, and the
Raiders of the Lost Ark III, but as a person he lost me then, especially
when his reaoning was to stop women telling him things he didn't want to
hear "They have a habit of going on at you about things, and they won't stop
if you tell them you don't want to hear it, so a slap is completely
justified to teach them to stop. Just the open hand,  there's no need for
closed fists, but you have a right to do what you want in your own house and
they need to be taught that."

If he'd said a man had a right to defend himself if a woman attacked him, I
would have had a different reaction, but his reasoning showed me that he
considers women to be children or pets.

The only good thing I can say about him is at least he's honest - not like
OJ Simpson or Ike Turner who deny they beat their wives
