THE OTHER HALF
COMMENTARY ARCHIVES, 18 Jan 2010
A married couple enjoyed their new fishing boat together, but it was always the husband who was behind the wheel operating the boat. He was concerned about what might happen in an emergency. So one day out on the lake he said to his wife, "Please take the wheel, dear. Pretend that I am having a heart attack. You must get the boat safely to shore and dock it." So she drove the boat to shore and safely docked it. Later that evening, the wife walked into the living room where her husband was watching television. She sat down next to him, switched the TV channel, and said to him, "Please go into the kitchen, dear. Pretend I’m having a heart attack and set the table, cook dinner, and after we’ve eaten wash the dishes."
