*Practical Mathematics* *ROMANCE MATHEMATICS* Smart man + smart woman = romance Smart man + dumb woman = affair Dumb man + smart woman = marriage Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy * * * OFFICE ARITHMETIC * Smart boss + smart employee = profit Smart boss + dumb employee = production Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime * * * SHOPPING MATH* A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs. A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need. * * * GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS * A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband. A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife. A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man. * * *HAPPINESS* To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all. * * * LONGEVITY* Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die. * * *PROPENSITY TO CHANGE* A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't. A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does. * * * DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE * A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument. * * * HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED* * * Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals. * * * SEND THIS TO A SMART WOMAN WHO NEEDS A LAUGH AND TO THE SMART GUYS YOU KNOW CAN HANDLE IT. * ----- Original Message ----- *From:* George Nincehelser <geo...@nincehelser.com> *To:* Nascar Caver <nascarca...@gmail.com> *Cc:* texascavers@texascavers.com *Sent:* Wednesday, May 23, 2007 11:30 AM *Subject:* Re: [Texascavers] RE: Math Skills There are actually 10.
