Funny, that.
I've tried time and time again to program "wife" properly, but it
doesn't take the programming rules or the scripting. I honestly thought
there was a problem with the application itself, but then found out that
it's by sheer nature that the application cannot be programmed at all.
The application runs on it's own schedule with it's own time priorities
and it's own particular bend.

I managed once to un-install "wife" but ended up getting another
installation less than ten years later. I shan't try to un-install this
version as it's become a part of life's OS; but have a hard time living
with it's proprietary ruleset.
