Three elderly men visit the doctor’s office for a memory test. The doctor turns to the first man and asks, “What’s three times three?”

“274,” the man replies confidently.

The doctor sighs, looks up at the ceiling, and moves on to the second man.

“Your turn,” he says. “What’s three times three?”

“Tuesday,” the second man replies without hesitation.

Shaking his head in disbelief, the doctor turns to the third man.

“Alright, let’s try you. What’s three times three?”

“Nine,” says the third man.

The doctor lights up. “That’s correct! How did you figure it out?”

“Easy,” the third man replies. “I just subtracted 274 from Tuesday.”
