Blame all those silly women who insisted on getting jobs in the first place. :wink:
edit: that's half joke, half truth... the truth of it is dual income is necessary because people started doing it 20-30 years ago. the joke of it is obviously women have the right to earn and be successful. (didn't want there to be any confusion

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
