THE VALUE OF A GOOD VOCABULARY
I called an old MIT classmate and asked what he was doing.

I was impressed.
However, upon further inquiry, I learned that he was washing dishes with hot water under his wife's supervision.

Interesting. His wife supervises his dish washing. Does she also tie his shoelaces in the morning?
