Recently, I bought a cartridge for my printer. It came in a box mounted on a
card and wrapped in plastic. When I took it apart, I found that the printer
cartridge itself was actually quite small, but they made the packaging
unnecessarily large to make it harder to steal and to make the customer feel
better about the high price.
I pointed this out to SWMBO and mentioned how my weight gain over the
years of our marriage should have the same effect: It made me seem more
valuable and also made me harder for other women to steal.
She's still laughing.:doh:

Why does "overlook" and "oversee" mean opposite things?
