My father owned an Italian Deli when I was a kid. This reminds me of the time I was taking my first algebra class in junior high school, and I asked him...
Ham is $1.50 a pound, Cheese is $1.00 a pound, and roast beef is $2.50 a pound. If a man walks into your store and has $20 to spend and he wants twice as much roast beef as ham but half as much cheese as roast beef and wants to know how much roast beef, ham, and cheese he will get for $20, what do you tell him?
My Dad's reply was: "I'd tell him to get the hell out of my store!"

Shoot first and shoot people who ask questions, later.
