To An Old Friend,
When I was in my teens there was an older, retired boxer that set up
some tables on the side of
the rode to display these amazing glass
statues that he created... right there on the side of the rode.
I passed by him on my way to karate lessons all the time, and we always
talked about boxing vs. karate and
the art of fighting. It was great that
this retired boxer could create such amazing works of art.
This is a word-math problem that this friend of mine gave to me.
Apparently he had given this problem to
people from IBM and ewett-Packard,
and noone was ever able to figure it out. His offer was that he would
make a
glass
ship worth $100 dollars to the first person to figure out the answer.
I was the first person to bring him a correct answer. There is actually
more than one correct answer, I only
brought the lowest possible answer.
He took out a calculator, and was happy to reprove the answer that I
gave.
However, he did not make a $100 glass ship for me.
Instead, he gave me a $200 glass ship.
He was a pretty good friend, and in a reference to 'The Last Samurai'
I would like to say that I will always
value our conversations.
