"Why am in here again?" asked Simon, still not believing that he had been sent to the principals office. "About how you taught Alvin math, I'm glad that he learned, but he can't sit there in class counting women", the principle replied, arms crossed. Simon sighed, "That's the only way he'll learn. I asked him what he liked and he said…" "Girls", finished the principle. "Yes, girls," continued Simon, "so, I taught him how to do math counting girls."

"What's 8 divided by 2, Alvin?" Simon asked his older, but shorter, brother.
"Ummm, let's see... There are 2 guys and 8 girls they all want an equal amount so…4! "Good job Alvin! OK, what's 7 divided by 3?" asked Simon again. "Well there's 3 guys and 7 girls so … 2 remainder of 1…, which they can take turns with!" Alvin replied cheerfully. "Umm, ok… What's 10+11? ", asked Simon." Ten pretty girls plus 11 hot girls equals 21 very pretty and hot girls!" Alvin replied happily. "Well guess my job here is done", Simon said, satisfied. "Thanks bro! I owe you one!"

"Well it is inappropriate for Alvin to do his math this way", started the principle," I'm going to have to talk to you're father about this." "You can't do that!" argued Simon." That's the way he does his math! You want him to be successful in life don't you?" "Well, yes but…" "And you do want him to pass the math test don't you?" Simon continued. "Sure but…" Well I suggest that you reconsider!" Simon said almost yelling and walking out of the principle's office, annoyed. Behind he left a very thoughtful principle, which later on was proud to say that Alvin passed his test with commended performance.
