how to choose a wife

I was telling my mom about these women troubles I have. In particular, my indecision in choosing between 2 women I know. Her solution?

"Since you are working on your house, invite them over to help you out with the house. Whoever does the better work wins. See? Easy."

Judging a woman by their handyman skills isn't the most intuitive way to choose a wife, but then again what do I know about it?

Then again, my mom was arranged, so what does she know about it? Still, my mom is pretty wise about things, and it's a testament to her tha I'm actually considering it. :)
