Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right,
and the other is usually the husband.
When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run,
my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.
But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first: the truck,
the car, e-mail, fishing, always something more important to me.
Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.
When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass,
busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors.
I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house.
I was gone only a few minutes.
When I came out again I handed her a toothbrush.
"When you finish cutting the grass," I said,
"you might as well sweep the driveway."
The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.
