The best joke in the world?

Question

A professor of mathematics sent a fax to his wife. It read:

"Dear wife, You must realize that you are 54 years old and I have certain needs which you are no longer able to satisfy. I am otherwise happy with you as a wife, and I sincerely hope you will not be hurt or offended to learn that by the time you receive this letter, I will be at the Grand Hotel with my 18-year-old teaching assistant. I'll be home before midnight. - Your Husband"
When he arrived at the hotel, there was a faxed letter waiting for him that read as follows:
"Dear Husband. You too are 54 years old, and by the time you receive this, I will be at the Breakwater Hotel with the 18-year-old pool boy. Being the brilliant mathematician that you are, you can easily appreciate the fact that 18 goes into 54 a lot more times than 54 goes into 18. Don't wait up."

Answer 1

This is good but "the best joke in the world?"

Nah. This was the "best" joke at laughlab.co.uk:-

A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?"

Answer 2

It's good but not the best joke in the world. You must be a 54 year old female.

Answer 3

So This is that New Modern Math ? Lots of "Division", but with the '54' Factor, Little "Multiplication"!

Answer 4

I don't know if it's the best ever, but I just emailed in to about 20 people and I assure you that within 3 days, it will hit the email boxes of at least 278,000 people... so by next week, it will be "old."

Answer 5

haha, thats a pretty good one, but listen to this one...

A man and his wife were wanting to go to Florida for vacation, but his wife had to work, so they decided he would go and she would come the next day, so when he arrives at the hotel, he decides to send an e-mail to his wife, but when he puts in her address, he puts a hyphen in instead of a underscore, so instead of it going to his wife, it goes to an old widow woman who's husband, who was a preacher, had just died, so after the funeral, the old woman went to check her e-mail and after she read the email, she screamed and passed out dead on the floor, everyone went to see what happened, they looked at the computer and read the email and it said, "Hey honey, it sure is hot down here, can't wait to see you! Love, your husband"
