Pinocchio’s prehistory. Master Ciliegia received an order to make a
certain number of stools. “If I make three stools a day, starting from today,”
the carpenter thought aloud, “I'll finish on Sunday. If I make five stools a day,
I'll be done on Friday.”—“And what day is it today?” asked a curious
talking block of wood. Indeed, what day is it?
[A. Shevkin]
