Math

I got this in email this morning and thought it was too good to pass up...

Little David, who was Jewish, was failing math. His parents
Tried everything. Tutors, mentors, flash cards, special learning
centers, and nothing helped.

As a last resort, someone told them to try a Catholic school.
"Those nuns are tough" they said. David was soon enrolled at St.
Mary's. After school on the very first day David ran through the door
And straight to his room, without even kissing his mother hello. He
Started studying furiously, books and papers spread out all over his room.
Right after dinner he ran upstairs without mentioning TV, and hit the books
harder than before.

His parents were amazed. This behavior continued for weeks, until report
card day arrived. David quietly laid the envelope on the table, and went to
his room. With great trepidation, his mother opened the report. David had
gotten an A in math!

She ran up to his room, threw her arms around him and asked, "David honey,
how did this happen? Was it the nuns? "No!", said David. "On the first day
of school when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren't
fooling around!"
