All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.



Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

    I will have you know that I am probably the only woman on the planet that can say she has a closer relationship to her MIL than she ever did to her own mother.

    MIL set the bar for behavior and I only hope I can do as well for my own DIL as of last October.

    Don't get me wrong, I think your anagram is mostly correct. My kids know I can be a momma grizzly when riled.

    Who came up with these anyway? They are shockingly correct in ways I never thought about before.

  2. I think I got them in a list serve email.

    I know of a couple of women who are excellent MIL's. I don't have one myself. It seems like the ones who do are the same women who are genuinely helpful and who pitch in without piping in about how things should be done.
