Okay folks...it's a joke!




Math humor....who'd have thunk it?! :-)


New York , NY - A public school teacher was arrested today at John
F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in
possession of a ruler, a protractor, a setsquare, a slide rule and a
calculator.

At a morning press conference, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales
said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-Gebra movement. He
did not identify the man, who was charged by the FBI with carrying weapons
of math instruction.

"Al-Gebra is a problem for us," Gonzales said. "They desire
solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a
search of absolute value. They use code names like `x' and `y' and refer to
themselves as `unknowns', but we have determined they belong to a common
denominator of the axis of medieval coordinates in every country. As the
Greek philanderer Isosceles used to day, `There are three sides to every
triangle.'"

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, "If God
had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have
given us more fingers and toes." White House aides told reporters they could
not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President.
