Me: Dear I would like to buy a Kindle if that is ok.
Wife: Well, what is a kindle?
Me: It's an electronic device to read books on.
Wife: Um, what's wrong with paper books?
Me: They are soooo 1500 BC to 1900s. And I can carry 1000 books in the space of a single paper back.
Wife: Well, ok I guess. I don't understand it but whatever. How much does it cost?
Me: Um, about $40,359.00.
Wife: What for a little electronic reading device.
Me: Well, the Kindle itself is $359, but the boat to use it on will be about $40,000.
