You may have something there. In fract, all of you seem to be pretty much irrational.

Did you hear about the french priest who tried to reform the prostitutes of Paris by teaching them analytic geometry?
He failed, but he learned a valuable lesson in life: don't try to put Descartes before the whores.

Druid: That seems to be a well coordinated thought.
Rhonnie: You hit the 1500th post bringing us to page 61! That seems fitting to me - you've been so radiant since the announcement of your engagement.

Then there was the guy with an inner ear infection who lost his sense of balance and direction.....
He didn't know vertigo.

I'm trying to locate the article where Marylin Vos Savant, quetionably the worlds smartest person, says puns are the the resort of intelectual wanabees. I however can't find it. I also don't remember her exact wording and so I am of coarse paraphrasing.

Just hope no one's listening in on a police band scanner. If they are, it could result in a birch of confidentiality.

Which would force the police to call in Sherlock Holmes to investigate. The great detective would, of course, declare the case to be 'elm-ent-tree'

So true, TFD. Unfortunately, in the US, anyone accused has to be proven guilty. That means whomever is arrested will get a chance to redbud the charges against him/her.
And of course, if it's a minor whose parents aren't available, someone will be appointed to act in locust parentis. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
