Visions of Sugar Plums

As a retired CPA with obsessive-compulsive disorder, this is what runs through my head all day:

47 times 5 equals 235, therefore 47 times 50 equals 2,350. 47 times 3 equals 141. 2,350 minus 141 equals 2,209. Therefore 47 times 47 equals 2,209.

Some wives leave because hubby won’t answer the question "what are you thinking?" Mine left because I did.

Now, please excuse me while I check the stove.
