One morning a son got up and was leaving the house with a hand full of chicken wire.
His father said, Son, where are you going?. The son replied, Im going to catch me some chickens.
The father said, Son, you cant catch chickens with chicken wire. But the son insisted that he knew what he was doing. Later on that day, the son came home with two chickens in his hand.
The father thought, I guess he knows what hes doing.
The next morning the son got up with some duck tape.
The father said, Son, where you going?.
The son replied, Im going to catch some ducks.
The father yelled, YOU CANT CATCH DUCKS WITH DUCK TAPE.
The son insisted that he knew what he was doing. Later on that day the son came home with two ducks under each arm.
The father thought, Damn, I guess he does know what hes doing!
The next morning the son got up with a hand full of pussywillows. The father said, hold up son, let me put on my shoes.!!

KABINDA, ZAIRE–In a move IBM office are hailing as a major step in the
companys ongoing worldwide telecommunications revolution, Mwana Ndeti,
a member of Zaires Bantu tribe, used an IBM global uplink network modem
yesterday to crush a nut.
Ndeti, who spent 20 minutes trying to open the nut by hand, easily
cracked it open by smashing it repeatedly with the powerful modem. I could not
crush the nut by myself, said the 47-year-old Ndeti, who added the savory
nut to a thick, peanut-based soup minutes later. With IBMs help, I was
able to break it.
Ndeti discovered the nut-breaking, 28.8 V.34 modem yesterday, when IBM was
shooting a commercial in his southwestern Zaire village. During a break in
shooting, which shows African villagers eagerly teleconferencing via
computer with Japanese schoolchildren, Ndeti snuck onto the set and took the
modem, which he believed would serve well as a smashing utensil.
IBM officials were not surprised the longtime computer giant was able to
provide Ndeti with practical solutions to his everyday problems. Our
telecommunications systems offer people all over the world global networking
solutions that fit their specific needs, said Herbert Ross, IBMs
director of marketing. Whether youre a nun cloistered in an Italian abbey
or an Aborigine in Australias Great Sandy Desert, IBM has the ideas to get
you where you want to go today.
According to Ndeti, of the modems many powerful features, most impressive
was its hard plastic casing, which easily sustained several minutes of
vigorous pounding against a large stone. I put the nut on a rock, and I hit
it with the modem, he said. The modem did not break. It is a good modem.
Ndeti was so impressed with the modem that he purchased a new,
state-of-the-art IBM workstation, complete with a PowerPC 601
microprocessor, a quad-speed internal CD-ROM drive and three 16-bit ethernet
networking connectors. The tribesman has already made good use of the
computer system, fashioning a gazelle trap out of its wires, a boat anchor
out of the monitor and a crude but effective weapon from its mouse.
This is a good computer, said Ndeti, carving up a just-captured gazelle
with the computers flat, sharp internal processing device. I am using
every part of it. I will cook this gazelle on the keyboard. Hours later,
Ndeti capped off his delicious gazelle dinner by smoking the computers
200-page owners manual.
IBM spokespeople praised Ndetis choice of computers. We are pleased
that the Bantu people are turning to IBM for their business needs, said
company CEO William Allaire. From Kansas City to Kinshasa, IBM is bringing
the world closer together. Our cutting-edge technology is truly creating a
global village.
NASA was interviewing professionals to be sent to Mars. Only one could go, and that person couldnt return to Earth. The first applicant, an engineer, was asked how much he wanted to be paid for going.
One million dollars, he answered, because I want to donate it to M.I.T.
The next applicant, a doctor, was asked the same question. He asked for two million dollars. I want to give a million to my family and leave the other million for the advancement of medical research.
The last applicant was a lawyer. When asked how much money he wanted, he whispered in the interviewers ear, Three million dollars.
Why so much more than the others? the interviewer asked.
The lawyer replied, Ill give you $1 million, Ill keep $1 million, and well send the engineer.

Remember, if youre not part of the solution, youre part of the precipitate!
There is the joke about the homeopath who forgot to take his medicine and died of an overdose.
How many physical chemists does it take to wash a beaker?
None. Thats what organic chemists are for!
It is disconcerting to reflect on the number of students we have flunked in chemistry for not knowing what we later found to be untrue. –quoted in Robert L. Weber, Science With a Smile (1992)

On a flight from Dallas to New York, just after the Fasten Your Seat Belts
sign went out, a rather large man, in a cowboy hat and boots got up, went to the
front of the plane and announced, Im James Brown, B – R – O – W – N, I am
a white, Protestant American. Im white from tip to toe and I hate
niggers, Jews and Catholics. He then returned to his seat.
Halfway through the flight, he stood up again, walked to the front
of the plane and announced:
Hello folks, you know me, Jimmy Brown, B – R – O – W – N, a white,
Protestant American, white from tip to toe, and I can tell you this, I
hate niggers, Jews and Catholics.
Just after the captian announced that the plane was begining to descend, he
again stood, went to the front of the plane and told his story once more:
After the flight captain has announced that they are beginning to descend
Hi folks, Im Jimmy Brown, B – R – O – W – N,
a white, Protestant American and I hate niggers, Jews and Catholics.
He then returned to his seat.
A small, narrow chested person, with a black hat and a curl of hair on one
side of his head stood up and introduced himself: Ladies and gentlemen,
Im Solomon Feinstein, I am an American citizen and as you all might have
guessed, I am Jewish. But I am white from tip to toe, except for my
asshole which is brown, B – R – O – W – N.
