Opinion: Garbage Disposal Good ‘For An Unclogged Marriage’
Written by Pat's Papers | Tuesday, 16 October 2012 7:47 AM

Funny column from Ralph Gardner in the Wall Street Journal this morning. Gardner writes: ” In any couple, one person is vigilant about making sure food scraps don’t disappear down the kitchen sink’s drain and thus eventually clog it, while the other couldn’t care less, or at a minimum believes there are more important things in life.” (I am the vigilant one, for the record.) The rest of the column chronicles his search for a garbage disposal to “lessen the conflict” in his marriage.
