Wife Chart


How does your wife rank?


This is the first page of a 1930s chart used to give couples "feedback" on their marriages. I wish they had the whole list up... but I'm sure my wife would rank as "Very Superior" regardless. [full story]

Another blog that's just way way way better than mine.

Just photos of dads with their babies -- with their heads swapped.

Give a Man a Fish.

Something a commenter posted on the Freakonomics blog the other day struck a chord... He referenced the popular saying:
Give a man a fish, he'll live for a day.
Teach a man to fish, he'll live forever.


The post got me thinking more about the analogy as it could be applied during all this Recession talk, and prompted me to try a Haiku Redux of that same saying...
Give a man a fish...
because he was just laid off.
Was a fisherman.

Maybe one of you more skilled in the ways of Haikus, limericks, etc., will come up with something better. :)
