  “I think I want to study chemistry,” John said to Mary. “It’s a complicated subject but I want to learn how to compose new compounds out of chemical components. I’ve read that scientists are now using air pressure to compress and create Mary, what about you? An intelligent girl like you would make a good chemist.”

  “Thanks for the compliment but chemistry is not a comprehensible subject for me” Mary replied. “Dealing with dangerous chemicals is a further complication. Musical compositions is what I want to study. I’m fascinated by the fact that most compositions are comprised of over a dozen different musical pieces. Also, I find that musical arrangements are easy for me to comprehend.”

  need a lot of money.”

  “That’s not a complimentary statement, John!” Mary shouted, trying to regain her composure. “And Jane, you are guilty of complicity!” Mary tearfully added. “However, you’re both right. I’ve had the hardest time trying to reach a compromise with my parents over this issue. They’ve done a comprehensive review of my spending habits. They won’t give me any more money unless I comply with their request to study a more practical subject, like finance.”

  John smiled back at Mary. “I guess a compulsive shopped needs a compulsory education!”
