At the same time, I would like to inform you that while you read this, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, my tennis coach, who like your secretary is also 18 years old. As a successful businessman and with your excellent knowledge of Math, you will understand that we are in the same situation, although there is one small difference: 18 goes into 54 more often than 54 goes into 18.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore I will not be back before lunchtime tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Your Loving Wife<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>A young bride tells her friend, \u201cPaul keeps telling everyone he\u2019s going to marry the most beautiful girl in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c What a shame!
