I have a pretty good reason for not posting lately.
This weekend was spent with my face buried. She was an open book. My pencil was sharp. I calculated every move I made, fingers dancing effortlessly across the keys.
Yes, it was a math marathon weekend. Homework for my managerial economics class (math) consists of 20 questions on topics including elasticity and production and cost.
How do I make my wife go wild? I show her my math homework. Quite simply, it’s the simplest way to get pimp-slapped without really doing anything wrong.
I don’t suggest it for to the weak of heart, mind or body, especially when my wife’s in the same room. Here’s a taste:
“Suppose you are an aide to a US senator who is concerned about the impact of a recently proposed excise tax. You are asked to answer the following questions and analyze the result given Qd=500-5P and Qs=2P-60. Find the equilibrium price and quantity. Now impose a $2 tax on this good and find the new equilibrium price and quantity.”
Believe it or not, this is one of the easier questions to answer.
Well, I better go get the ice pack. Susan’s probably going to read this and go upside my head.
