Student : “Great, well then I would like to ask you a question. If you can give me the correct answer. I will accept my mark as is and go. If you however do not know the answer, i want you give me an “A” for the exam.”

Professor : “Okay, it’s a deal. So what is the question?”

Student : “What is legal, but not logical, logical, but not legal, and neither logical, nor legal?” Even after some long and hard consideration, the professor cannot give the student an answer, and therefore changes his exam mark into an “A”, as agreed.

He immediately answers: “Sir, you are 63 years old and married to a 35 years old women, which is legal, but not logical. Your wife has a 25 years old lover, which is logical, but not legal.
