Meet the lovely Mrs. B.
I'm on vacation this week, and she's working part of it. Today, I made dinner, and a pie for dessert.
After dinner, I asked her if she wanted some pie.
She said, and I quote: "Only if you square it, and divide it by three." Huh? Now she's in bed thinking she won....
Any help will be appreciated.

It looks to me that she wants 3.2865333 pieces of pie. I may be wrong, I'm not too good at math either.

Mine is far above me in many respects. I’d have it no other way. She’s far more intelligent than me. But I hold the ace in the hole. Whenever she gets too much of an upper hand I remind her she can’t be too smart; she married me.

I don't believe you're a loser or a smartass. You could even be a hero.

Glad to be of assistance. When my four buddies come over on Sunday morning to watch the race I remind them; when there’s five of us and one of her, we’re still out numbered.

My 6th grade teacher, Mr. Steinbeck, was a firey red head, would always remind us, pie are round, cake are square. Brings back memories.

What she said was that she wants 1 1/3 piece or a large piece.
