At New York's Kennedy airport today, an individual
later discovered to be a public school teacher was
arrested trying to board a flight while in possession of a
ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a
calculator.
At a morning press conference, Attorney General
Gonzales said he believes the man is a member of the
notorious Al-Gebra movement. He is being charged by the
FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.
Al-Gebra is a fearsome cult. Gonzales said, "They
desire average solutions by means and extremes, and
sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute
values. They use secret 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 with coordinates in every country. As the Greek
philanderer Isosceles used to say, 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."
This was outside my algebra professor's office last year, I thought it was funny :-D
