Careful with that rotating vector, you could put someone's eye out. Okay, that proof didn't work for dimensions greater than 4, but to me you'll always be my sweet little Math boy. No, I don't know why the Nobel prize in Economics isn't really a Nobel prize, or why they waited this long to give it to someone 90 years old, who really deserves it. Ask your father. So, while you were away, did you meet anyone nice? You could at least have telephoned. So, when you’re out of town for a couple of days, do you always bring enough clean underwear?

Now don't you dare go away like that again. We got worried that you were stuck in an infinitely recursive proof or something, or worse yet, that you had tried to prove your own consistency without resorting to outside help.
