Comparisons
My wife and I were comparing notes the other day. "I have a higher IQ, did better on my SATs and make more money than you,ý she pointed out. "Yeah, but when you step back and look at the big picture, I'm still ahead," I said. She looked mystified. "How do you figure?" "I married better," I replied.
