Simple Mathematics
A professor of mathematics sent a fax to his wife. It read:
"Dear Wife:
You must realize that you are 54 years old, and I have certain
needs which you are no longer able to satisfy. I am otherwise
happy with you as wife, and I sincerely hope 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. Being the brilliant mathematician that you are, you
can easily appreciate the fact that 18 goes into 54 many more
times than 54 goes into 18. Don't wait up.
--- Your Wife"
