Math 101

Overheard recently, in a department that really ought to know better:

"Now enter 24 times 5 in that field"
" 'times' - that's the asterisk, right?"

Oh my.

Can you believe that?

Overheard in a bulk grocery store:

"YES! He actually took his new wife to Rome! Brandon Scofeld, the man who wouldn't even take me to Nebraska! Can you believe that?"

Knowing what I think about the relative merits of Nebraska and Rome, and looking at the speaker, yes. For some odd reason, I can believe that.
