I'm not quite sure how fancy titles fit in with the competence issue.

It sounds to me like you ARE sure. :-)

Cool! I always wanted to go to tactical school, but then I'm more of a
strategic sort. :-)

So this would mean that when your wife asks you whether she looks fatter in
the red dress than she does in the the blue dress, you say what?

totally wrong!

Nah!!! Bad move Jim. Girls can see right through that one. I think girls are
born with something called the "he's as full of s** t as a Christmas turkey
gene" or something close to this that seems to get us guys in a pack of
trouble if we try that one :-)

You guys got it easy; those are all canned answers.

My wife is skinny -- how does one answer when she keeps complaining that her
"upper level proportion" is too SMALL?

I usually don't respond at all which serves two purposes.
1) I have avoided having to answer the question.
2) I have deflected the ensuing response from the initial question onto
one I can successfully answer.

Of course, for those with hearing aids, you can pretend you didn't hear
the question and simply walk out of the room unscathed.
