Abe was very fussy with his money and always, regular as clockwork, went through his wife Sadie's chequebook each month to see where their money was going. He always wanted to see everything balance to the exact penny. This month, as in previous months, Sadie's figures are hard to reconcile and tired of having to spend so much time on her inaccuracies, Abe makes her agree to spend some time putting her figures into shape before he devotes any more time on them.
After spending hours poring over her paperwork, Sadie looks up and says, "Well, Abe, you should be proud of me. Ive done it - I've made it balance."
So Abe goes over to take a look. "OK, lets see what you've done."
On her worksheet he sees a long list of items starting with Mortgage $1,550.00; Electricity $70.50; Gas $150.75; Telephones $350.22; Private Medical Insurance $5,900.50; Kosher butcher $350.99; and ending with ESP $109.01. Puzzled by the last entry, Abe says, "What on earth is ESP, Sadie?"
"That's easy," replies Sadie, "It stands for, Error Some Place!"
