In honor of Capt. Dusty McAwesome taking the GRE today, I present you with the following math story problem:
Brian wins an electronic dartboard at the annual newspaper guild Christmas party. He takes it home and begins to set it up. The instructions insist that the center of the bull's-eye should be 5'8" from the floor. It then instructs him to place the top screw that will hold the dartboard 65.75" from the floor and the bottom screw 50.75" from the floor.
Explain how it is humanly possible to abide by all three measurements.
(That would be common sense)

Could the measurements be reversed somehow, accidentally? That's why instructions are rarely useful and why I don't bother with them. Hang it up haphazardly and throw. You'll have an excellent excuse for your bad form.
