    "Geek Jokes"?

    I thought all but one of them was funny, well, one and a half. Maybe you guys will like them. ???


    1. There are only 10 types of people in the world — those who understand binary, and those who don't.

    2. A mathematician, a biologist and a physicist are sitting in a street café watching an empty house on the other side of the street. Then they see two people going into the house. After a while they notice three people coming out of the house. The physicist says, "We can't have seen it accurately." The biologist says, "They must have reproduced." The mathematician says, "If one more person enters the house then it will be empty."

    3. Three statisticians go duck hunting. Their dog chases out a duck and it starts to fly. The first statistician aims and takes his shot, it misses a foot too high. The second statistician aims and takes his shot, it misses a foot too low. The third statistician says, "We got him!"

    4. Women are the product of time and money:
    Women = Time X Money
    Time is money:
    Women = Money X Money
    Money is the root of all evil:
    Women = √Evil X √Evil
    So women are evil:
    Women = Evil

    5. Two scientists are sitting in a bar. A blonde walks by them and one of the scientists sighs "Why are blondes so attractive?" To this, the friend replies "because they are so dense."

    6: Two atoms sitting in a bar. One turns to the other and says "I think I'm missing an electron".
    "Are you sure?" says the other.
    "Yes, I'm positive."

    7:
    An ASCII character walks into a bar and orders three double-vodkas. Which he downs in quick succession.
    "What's your trouble, son?" asks the bartender.
    "Parity error", mutters the character.
    "Ah, I thought you looked a bit off."

    If through some transmission error a one had been mistakenly received as a nought or vice versa this might be detected though use of a Parity Bit.

    Thus a parity error would occur and lead to the data being requested again.

    The pun is "a bit off" a humorous description of the circumstance detected by parity errors.

    A policeman pulls over Dr. Heisenberg and says, "Sir, do you know how fast you were going?"

    I probably shouldn't admit to having the t-shirt. Although in all fairness it was a present.
