Geezez Wildman, you ever get hit in the head with a Barbie doll? Don't patronize your wife like that unless you enjoy pain!!!
I gave up trying to explain such things to the wife a long time ago. Fortunately, she quit asking those kind of dumb questions about the same time. She still asks all sorts of other dumb questions, though. Hey never a dull moment, right?
If we lost water at the house, it'd be a whole lot easier just to take the family out to a hotel for a day or two rather than listen to them all [censored] that they gotta use a jug or a bucket.
Funny, but they don't seem to have such concerns when we are out on the trail. I guess it is a context thingy.
