   Howard said, "We're so lucky to live in the Big Apple. Everywhere I look, I see another gorgeous woman. Look at that blonde walking our way. She's definitely a 10." Alan said, "Well, maybe a 9. Her eyes are a little too close together. But it's interesting, isn't it? A pretty woman is a pretty woman all over the world. It doesn't matter what part of the world she comes from. Pretty is pretty. Why is that? How can men all over the world agree that a pretty woman is a pretty woman? She might be an 8 to some, a 9 to some, or a 10 to others, but we all agree that she's pretty." Howard said, "That's easy. It's in our genes 1. Pretty women have been around for 200,000 years." Alan said, "Oh, yeah? Well, broccoli 2's been around for 200,000 years. How come we don't all love broccoli?"
