People Say I'm booksmart (and a Libra, Ladies ;-)??), so I would need someone with common sense for the balance.
The Ying to my Yang, If you will.

Common sense. My brother is "book smart" and he's the biggest dumbass I know. He didn't know to use oven mits when taking a hot pan out of the oven. He didn't know to light a candle or get a flashlight when we had a blackout.
However, I have a friend who dropped out of high school, but is a great musician, is incredibly kind, can debate with anyone about anything and make the other person change their mind, is responible and respectful, and is an overall great person.
Street smarts prevails over booksmarts.

Such a hard question. I would go with common sense(me) but I fell in love with booksmart. So we work out well.

Personally, no. Common sense goes alot further then book smarts. What does it matter if you can build rockets if you dont have the common since to keep the fuel and fire away from each other in production?

i would choose common sense over the other because one can become book smart but you either have common sense or you don't.
