A business owner in Texas was confused about paying an invoice and
deducting the early payment discount, so he decided to ask his secretary
for some mathematical help. He called her into his office and said, "You
graduated from the University of Texas and I need some help. If I were
to give you $21,375 minus 12.75%, how much would you take off?
The secretary thought a moment, then replied, "Everything but my earrings."
[ You gotta love those Texas women.]
