Find the humour in it

I had a funny incident with a client today. I'd just gotten in from lunch and it was just beautiful out: such a blue-blue sky, 75 degrees, the light just amazing, the daylilies were in bloom and the blackberries in season, and I must have sounded really happy when I answered my phone because when I asked a client what I could do for him he jokingly said: "You can tell me what is the speed of light."
So I told him 186,000 miles/second. Then I asked him if he'd heard that they had accelerated protons past the 'speed of light'.
He didn't know. He said, "Would that make Einstein roll over in his grave?"
I said, "No, just his Theory of Relativity. I guess quantum mechanics has one more thing going for it."
Out of the blue, he said, "I want to meet you. I want to date a woman like you. I find the cute ones but I can never find ones with brains."
I laughed.
I said, "Oh, I don't know about cute, but I do have brains... (pause)So... what was it you needed?"
He told me. It had to do with some transactions my company had conducted on his account, what they were for, and how he was supposed to book them on this general ledger.
(I am of the private opinion that engineers should not handle fiscal matters for their businesses, but I was feeling playful, so I said)
"What, you want me to educate you on physics AND accounting?"
And he said "Ok, I don't mean to sound creepy but now I REALLY want to meet you." (Hunh?)
I distracted him by blaming him for making me lock myself out of a screen I needed to access in order to answer his question as to what a specific debit was for. Which really happened. I told him I was going to have to call him back. So he gave me his number and made sure I knew it was his cell phone so I could reach him any time.
(I decided right then to wait and call him tomorrow, at his place of business.)
How amusing, and bizarre.
