It is embarrassing. Got straight A’s in English. Took Math courses in summer school for three years. My Dad was illiterate and could not spell. I once saw him looking over a counter at one of his employees using a calculator to add many 5 digit numbers and Dad was looking upside down at it and blurted out same correct number as she hit enter. Will never forget it. There were 432 entries.
My grandfather coudl do that too- I never could-
