OT: A maths joke

Started by Rick Lyons June 23, 2014
 
Hi,

  Infinitely many mathematicians walk into a bar... 

  The first says, "I'll have a beer." 
  The second says, "I'll have half a beer." 
  The third says, "I'll have a quarter of a beer." 

  The bartender pulls out just two beers. 

  The mathematicians ask, "Is that all you're giving us?" 

  The bartender replies, "Come on guys. Know your limits."

 An engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician were on a train heading
north for mental rehab, and had just crossed the border into Wales.

    The engineer looked out of the window and said "Look! Welsh sheep are
black!"
    The physicist said, "No, no. Some Welsh sheep are black."
    The mathematician looked irritated. "There is at least one field,
containing at least one sheep, of which at least one side is black."

A black guy and a white guy enter the whitehouse.  The white guy loses 18 minutes of tape recordings.  The other one loses all the irs emails, trade terrorists for traitors, fabricates stories about benghazi, disobeys the law regarding gm, illegal immigrants,changes the law on obamacare at his pleasure, cuts sweet heart deals with unions,..........  guess which one the media is outraged about?

Heisenberg and Schr�dinger get pulled over for speeding. The cop asks Heisenberg "Do you know how fast you were going?" Heisenberg replies, "No, but we know exactly where we are!" The officer looks at him confused and says "you were going 108 miles per hour!" Heisenberg throws his arms up and cries, "Great! Now we're lost!" The officer looks over the car and asks Schr�dinger if the two men have anything in the trunk. "A cat," Schr�dinger replies. The cop opens the trunk and yells "Hey! This cat is dead." Schr�dinger angrily replies, "Well he is now." ;-)

Hi, you forgot to mention that the "other one" lied to the whole country about keeping our health insurance plans with ObamaCare and promised that his economic plan would cause our gas and electricity prices to "necessarily skyrocket." When the "other one" said he wanted to "transform America" no one had the balls to ask a simple two-word question: ...."Into what?" [-Rick-] How's that Hope and Change workin' out for ya'?

Unfortunately it was not too large for the margins of this newsgroup. -- Rick
