My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and
I kept
staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a
nearby
table. My wife asked, "Do you know her?"
"Yes," I sighed. "She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took
to
drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she
hasn't been
sober since."

"My God!" said my wife. "Who would think a person could go on
celebrating
that long?"

So you see, there really are two ways to look at everything.
