'To My Dear Wife,

You will surely understand that I have certain needs
that you, being 54 years old, can no longer satisfy. I
am very happy with you & I value you as a good wife.
Therefore, after reading this letter, I hope that 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 home before midnight.'

When the man came home late that night, he found the
following letter on the dining room table:

'My Dear Husband,
I received your letter and thank you for your honesty
about my being 54 years old. I would like to take this
opportunity to remind you that you are also 54 years
old. As you know, I am a math teacher at our local
college. I would like to inform you that while you
read this, I will be at the Marriot Hotel with
Michael, one of my students, who is also on the tennis
team. He is young, virile, and like your secretary, is
18 years old.
As a successful businessman who has an excellent
knowledge of Math, you will understand although it may
appear that we are in the same situation, there is one
mathematical difference: 18 goes into 54
a lot more times than 54 goes into 18.

Therefore, I will not be home until sometime tomorrow.'
