OT--A Joke [Musician's Response to Math Jokes]
"Kyla =^..^=" wrote in message
... What do you put on a Fractal sandwich? Mandlebrot-wurst *runs out of the room* Hugs Kyla I'm a musician, not a mathematician (although I somewhat get the puns!); are there any music geeks here? Found on the web: http://www.classicalarchives.com/fun.html Especially fun for theory geeks--those who have survived the full run of music-major theory courses (harmony, counterpoint, form-and-analysis, etc., etc.). Another buildup of really bad puns: C, E-flat and G go into a bar. The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve minors," and E-flat leaves. C and G have an open fifth between them and after a few drinks, G is out flat. F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough. D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom saying, "Excuse me, I'll just be a second." A comes into the bar, but the bartender is not convinced that this relative of C is not a minor and sends him out. Then the bartender notices a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and shouts, "Get out now. You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight." Next night, E-flat, not easily deflated, comes into the bar in a 3-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender (who used to have a nice corporate job until his company downsized) says: "You're looking pretty sharp tonight. Come on in. This could be a major development." And in fact, E-flat takes off his suit and everything else and stands there au naturel. Eventually, C, who had passed out under the bar the night before, begins to sober up and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. So, C goes to trial, is convicted of contributing to the diminution of a minor and sentenced to 10 years of DS without Coda at an up scale correctional facility. The conviction is overturned on appeal, however, and C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even accidental, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless. The bartender decides, however, that since he's only had tenor so patrons, the soprano out in the bathroom and everything has become alto much treble, he needs a rest and closes the bar. OBLIGATORY FELINE CONTENT: The other night, Bubbles got it into her head to start rolling all over the organ pedals. I turned the thing on, and she had a look of puzzlement as to what was going on as she kept pressing pedals.... Priceless! David |

I hate math; majored in romance languages, and play several brass instruments.You must have been as bored as I was with the higher math display here. We all have talents for different things, don't we? I really think my language abilities serve me more usefully in RL since school than higher math would've.

Mandlebrot-wurst I just watched a show about Mandelbrot and fractals *last night*. That's quite a coincidence! (Well, maybe not - did you also just watch that show?) It was on "Nova", a one-hour science program on public TV. Yowie responded: (and, YAY! nerd humor! My favorite obscure nerdy joke is: what do you get when you cross a mosquito with a mountain climber? Nothing! You can't cross a vector with a scalar!) LOL!! On the other hand, a vector and a scalar can be multiplied, can't they? The product is another vector. (Reaching back over the years, trying to remember...) So I guess that means that when a mountain climber and a mosquito have children together, they produce more mosquitoes? In the context of vectors, "cross" means to compute a cross product between two 2D vectors in three space (and no scalars). Look up "cross product" for more detail.

High School was A Joke
bastXXXette... Kyla =^..^= : LOL. I'm kind of clueless when it comes to 'real' math, however, even though my late Dad was a math teacher at the same High School when I was there. "That' was fun...not. Fractals are real math! I know that 'now' Bummer about your dad teaching at your high school. Yup, it really was. If I want a real LOL, I drag out my old 1962&1963 yearbooks and look at them and what people wrote to me. Boy, I weighed about 96 lbs back then. LOL...and my then boyfriend was 6'8" and in the ROTC. I don't think he went to Viet Nam because he had a heart murmer. Good memories of High School, even tho Dad taught there. I was a real practial joker back then..even wrecked the driver's ed car, but it wasn't my fault...both the lights were green when the accident happened. IIRC, we didn't wear seatbelts back then. I didn't realize it at the time, but my High School in Denver was all White, except for a few Mexican-Americans. No people of color till my Senior year. And our school flag was the Confederate Flag :/ In hindsight, both my parents were racists :/ Not me though, at least I had a brain in 'that' aspect. We had a Folk Song Club and I was on the HS newspaper. Kyla -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

High School was A Joke
"Victor Martinez" ... bastXXXette Bummer about your dad teaching at your high school. Yup, it was, but I got away with murder evil grin My mom (not a teacher, at the time a retired engineer looking for something to do with her time) taught trigonometry and probability/statistics to my high school class. Now, that was a most interesting experience. I'll bet No wonder I never even made Algebra 1, Dad always gave me the 'answer books'. He wasn't allowed to have me in his classes however. Thank God for that. Didn't go to me Senior Prom because Mom and Dad were the 'chaperones', so I threw a small wild party while the Prom was going on..hee hee hee. Made sure everyone was gone and evidence cleaned up by the time they got home.. Kyla --the math impaired 'bad' girl -- Victor M.
