(There's a joke about physicists that goes a little like that -- the punchline being that the physicist likes to have both a wife and a mistress because the wife thinks the physicist is with the mistress and the mistress thinks the physicist is with the wife, and meanwhile the physicist can sneak off and do physics...)
Lol, I've heard this joke about engineers, and I've always loved it. The architect prefers a wife for the stability she represents, the artist a mistress for the passion, and the engineer a wife and a mistress so he can go to the office and get some work done.
And at least she had more time to read :P
Win-win-win for everyone except the person who's currently having to listen to G2 talk. :P
