Cannibals and Politicians

A cannibal was walking through the jungle and came upon a restaurant opened by a fellow cannibal. Feeling somewhat hungry, he sat down and looked over the menu…

Broiled Missionary: $25.00
Fried Explorer: $35.00
Baked Politician: $100.00.

The cannibal called the waiter over and asked , “Why such a price difference for the politician?”

The cook replied “Have you ever tried to clean one of them?”

During a neighborhood party…

During a neighborhood party, Joe got into an argument with his neighbor, about
presidential politics. Finally, the neighbor asked me why Joe was such a
dedicated Republican.

Joe told him that his father and grandfather were both Republicans and he was
carrying on the family tradition.

”That’s it?” said the exasperated neighbor. ”What if your father and
grandfather had been horse thieves?”

”Well…” Joe replied, ”I suppose then I’d be a Democrat like you.”

Teacher Arrested

News Release: Teacher Arrested

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 John Ashcroft 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,” Ashcroft said. “They desire average solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value.

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 3 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.”
