A husband wrote the following letter for his
wife and left it on the dining room table:
'To My Dear Wife,
You will surely understand that I have certain
needs that you, being 64 years old, can no longer satisfy. I am very
happy with you, and I value you as a good wife. Therefore, after
reading this
letter I hope you will not wrongly interpret the fact that I will be
spending the evening with my 18-year-old secretary at the Comfort Inn
Hotel.
Please don't be upset - I shall be back home before midnight .'
------------------------
When the man came home late that night he found the following
letter on the dining room table:
'To My Dear Husband,
I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about my
being 64 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you
that you are also 64 years old. As you know, I am a math teacher at our
local college.
I would like to inform you that while you're at the Comfort Inn,
I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is
also the assistant tennis coach. He is young, virile, and like your
secretary, he is 18 years old.
As a successful businessman with an excellent knowledge of math,
you will understand that we are in the same situation, although with one
small difference; 18 goes into 64 a lot more times than 64 goes into 18.
Therefore I will not be home until sometime tomorrow.'
