An architect, an artist, and a computer hacker were discussing whether it
was better to spend time with the wife or a mistress.

The architect said that he enjoyed time with his wife, building a solid
foundation for a long and enduring relationship.

The artist said he enjoyed time with his mistress more, because of the
passion and mystery he found there.

But the hacker spoke up, "I like both."  "Both?"  "Yeah.  If you have both
a wife and a mistress, they will each assume you're spending time with the
other, and you can go to the lab and get some work done."
