    Even cavemen need to know math, especially when they sell auto insurance.

    Itā€™s a little embarrassing when I realize how similar I was to Calvin, making similar arguments.

    LOL! Not exactly a popular career field. You might want to check the average pay for that, Calvin!

    Thereā€™s one good thing about being a caveman ā€“ Barbara Bach.

    She is married to Ringo Starr. Sheā€™s best remembered for her role in ā€œThe Spy Who Loved Meā€ which is largely seen as the best Bond film from the Roger Moore Era and was Rogerā€™s own favourite.

    Another great thing about being a caveman was Raquel Welch in ā€œOne Million Years BCā€ for Hammer studios.

    On Saturday, someone replied to Calvinā€™s negative comments about Math by saying that without Math weā€™d be cavemen. Calvin seems to agree.

    My cat often reminds me that his ancestors used to eat my ancestors. So if Calvin is going to be a caveman, then that would make Hobbesā€¦.

    Nice knowing ya, Calvinā€¦

    Iā€™ll bet Calvin learns some math when he starts getting an allowance. He will starting thinking real hard about adding then.

    Calvin could be an actor. Too many of them have proven that being an actor requires no knowledge of math, scienceā€¦ Hell, you donā€™t really even need to think to be an actor.

    Dad needs to find something that would sway Calvin. Some every day math he ā€œmightā€ need to use.

    I thought Calvin might have said artist. I am related to several, and then only one who has managed to make a living at it is so dyslexic some one else needs to handle his finances.

    Iā€™m a caveman, thereā€™s no money in it. People look at you funny when you chase rabbits or quail with a big stick, so around here you need money to eat. And money is math.

    I was awful in math, and later in life I found out that my brain often turned numbers around. I never said that math was useless, but until I was adult, I never realized how often I would have to use math. Fortunately, I married a math genius, so I can get him to help me with that. I told him that he cannot die before I do, because then Iā€™ll have to hire an accountant! :-)

    I used to despise math.

    When I was in school if you had told me someday I would be an accountant I would have told you you were crazy.

    This sounds like half the readers here. ā€œI donā€™t know why anyone has to learn math, I havenā€™t used it since they forced me to learn it in high school!ā€ And then they go on to become science-hating voters who reject truth as conspiracy and accept conspiracies as truth.

    My grandmother asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I said a hobo. That didnā€™t sit to well with her, and she let me know it.Now I grind my bones into dust 10 hours a day in a dirty factory. Thanks grandma!
