Difference between hypothetical and reality
A little boy goes up to his father and asks: “Dad, what's the difference between hypothetical and reality?”
The father replies, “Well son, I could give you the book definitions, but I feel it could be best to show you by example. Go upstairs and ask your mother if she'd have sex with the mailman for $500,000.”
The boy goes and asks his mother: “Mom, would you have sex with the mailman for $500,000?”
The mother replies, “Hell yes I would!”
The little boy returns to his father. “Dad, she said ‘Hell yes I would!'”
The father then says, “OK, now go and ask your older sister if she'd have sex with her principal for $500,000.”
The boy asks his sister, “Would you have sex with your principal for $500,000?”
The sister replies: “Hell yes I would!”
He returns to his father. “Dad, she said ‘Hell yes I would!'”
The father answers, “OK, son, here's the deal: Hypothetically, we're millionaires, but in reality, we're just living with a couple of whores.”

The Prudential Mutual Assurance, Investment and Loan Association, founded 30 May 1848, was the first of the great industrial life insurance companies that eventually was handling the insurance policies of millions of people, but at first had only human computers (i.e., manual methods) to handle them. By 1877, 300 clerks were reviewing 2,500,000 policies were assisted by 24 Thomas de Colmar arithometers. Stibitz was a research mathematician at Bell Telephone Labs whose Complex Number calculator was operation on 8 Jan 1940.« |
