One morning, a 57-year-old wife discovered a note from her husband announcing that he was spending the evening at a hotel with his 19-year-old secretary because he felt his wife was too old to satisfy his needs. Expecting her to accept his decision quietly, he returned home that night to find a clever reply waiting on the dining table. His wife, also 57, explained that she had made similar plans with a 19-year-old assistant tennis coach and would not be home until the following day. As a mathematics teacher, she ended her message with a witty calculation: since 19 goes into 57 more times than 57 goes into 19, she believed she had the greater advantage! Her brilliant response turned his selfish excuse against him and delivered a lesson he would never forget.
