Hey Dave: Believe me ... in my 70 years here on earth, I've generally found the the high maintenance, slightly wacky women are the most challenging and fun. I would never marry one, but they usually could perform more tricks on a king size bed than a tribe of 20 monkeys could do on a 30 foot clothes line! And I've got the scars to prove it.

This list is a wealth of knowledge. It had never crossed my mind that high maintenance women are more fun than low maintenance women. I will have to ponder this analogy some more.

High maintenance cars = fun
Low maintenance cars = boring
High maintenance women.....

It's just life.  :)
