Three elderly men went to the doctor for a routine memory test. The doctor smiled and explained that he would ask each of them a simple question to see how sharp their minds still were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He turned to the first man and asked, \u201cWhat is three times three?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The man thought very hard, scratched his head, and confidently replied, \u201cTwo hundred seventy-four.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The doctor raised an eyebrow but stayed calm. He turned to the second man and said, \u201cAlright, your turn. What is three times three?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second man smiled proudly and answered, \u201cTuesday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The doctor sighed quietly, wrote something on his clipboard, and then turned to the third man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOkay,\u201d the doctor said, trying one last time. \u201cWhat is three times three?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The third man didn\u2019t hesitate for even a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNine!\u201d he shouted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The doctor\u2019s eyes lit up. \u201cExcellent!\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s absolutely correct. And can you tell me how you got that answer?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The third man leaned back, smiled, and said,
\u201cEasy, doc. I just subtracted 274 from Tuesday.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
