BASIC MATH
A professor of mathematics sent a fax to his wife.
Dear Wife,
You must realize that you are 54 years old,
and I have certain needs that you are no longer able to satisfy. I am otherwise happy with you as a wife and sincerely hope that you will not be hurt or offended to learn that by the time you receive this letter, I will be at the Grand Hotel with my 18-year-old teaching assistant.
I'll be home before midnight.
Your Husband .................
When he arrived at the hotel, there was a faxed
letter waiting for him that read as follows:
Dear Husband,
You too are 54 years old, and by the time you
receive this letter, I will be at the Breakwater Hotel with the 18-year-old pool boy. Since you are the mathematician, you will appreciate the fact that 18 goes into 54 more times than 54 goes into 18. Therefore, don't wait up.
.........................
It maybe your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
Hugs and a smile,
Nancy
