I'm against war, period, let's leave it at that. When you have this belief, then you do lots of things beforehand so that war doesn't become an issue, rather than let things boil over and then cry foul. If people come after me or my family, then I'll sure fight, but I don't want that and so I...

Another Good Oldie Q: How many surrealists does it take to screw in a light bulb? A: Two - one to hold the giraffe underneath the refrigerator and the other to run after the lawnower in the bathtub. Alternate answer: Seven - one to start the acid drip and six to get the bananas. And of...

At The Limit The convention breaks for the day and a bunch of thirsty mathematicians pour into the nearest watering hole. The first guy orders a pitcher of beer. The second wanted half a pitcher, the third asked for a quarter, then an eighth, and so on. The barman plops two pitchers...

Big Problem Solved! Here's a solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners at the airports: have a safe booth that you can step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on you. It would be a win-win for everyone, and there would be...
