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.
