Perfect for Mother's Day!

Extract:
Two angels are visiting the Design Department in Heaven to see the prototype of a new, improved model of God's favourite invention, the 'Human Being'. Before them - as yet totally inert and lifeless - sits a woman.
FIRST ANGEL (Looking closely and critically at the seated woman): So this is it, is it? This is what all the fuss is about.
SECOND ANGEL: Yes. This one's called Eve. According to the blueprint, it's a Woman.
FIRST ANGEL: So, like a Man, but with some woe added.
SECOND ANGEL: That's the idea.
FIRST ANGEL: Not much to look at.
SECOND ANGEL: No, but I'm sure later versions will improve on the original.
FIRST ANGEL: Hope so. Needs tarting up. Bit of colour in the cheeks, and a hair-do. Is it meant to replace the Man?
SECOND ANGEL: No, it's just a very much better model of human being. Vast improvement, by all accounts. This one can do lots of things that the Man can't do.
FIRST ANGEL: What sort of things?
SECOND ANGEL: Wash-up, cook, make beds, have children. Oh, and be Queen.
FIRST ANGEL: So what will the Man be doing while this one is so busy?
SECOND ANGEL: Not a lot. Apparently, we're working on something called a newspaper. It'll keep Man occupied for hours and hours, while all the real work gets done.
FIRST ANGEL: Impressive! What sort of mileage are they expecting to get from this one?
SECOND ANGEL: About 88 years.
FIRST ANGEL (taken aback): 88 years! What will it be doing at 88?
