[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 4146823, member: 7900"] Back in the '60's, I went to my first duty station in the Army in northern California, a small base near Petaluma and not far from Napa, CA. I had cousins that lived in Napa, so when I went over to visit, I called the operator to get their number so I could call and get their address. When I told the directory assistance operator for the number of my cousin, she wanted to know why I wanted that number. I explained that my mom had told me to be sure and look up my cousins when I got to California. She then said, "Terry, is that you?" Come to find out, she was the wife of my cousin, thus a cousin-in-law (if such a thing exists), and she knew that I would be coming to see them at some point. ("Was" is the key word as my cousin has passed on, but last I heard, she still lives out there.) [/QUOTE]
