No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference
between COMPLETE and FINISHED. However, in a recent linguistic conference
held in London, England, and attended by some of the best linguists in the
world: Samsundar Balgobin, a Guyanese, was the clear winner.
His final challenge was this: Some say there is no difference between
COMPLETE and FINISHED. Please explain the difference between COMPLETE and
FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand.
Here is his astute answer: "When you marry the right woman, you are
COMPLETE. But, when you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED. And when
the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!"
