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 a lot more times than 54 goes into 18.
Don't
wait up."
