A group of functions are having a party: everyone dancing and having a good time, with the sole exception of a single f(x)=ex who is standing off in the corner by himself. Another function approaches him, hoping to help him enjoy himself more, and asks: “Why don’t you try to integrate?”
In response, the f(x)=ex says dejectedly: “I know it won’t make any difference.”
-100 points to Kathleen for providing the joke that effectively won the geeky joke contest that extended across the whole Scotland trip.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

One behaviorist to another after lovemaking:
“Darling, that was wonderful for you. How was it for me?”

A Mathematician, a Biologist and a Physicist are sitting in a street cafe watching people going in and coming out of the house on the other side of the street. First they see two people going into the house. Time passes. After a while they notice three persons coming out of the house. The Physicist: “The measurement wasn’t accurate.”. The Biologist: “They have reproduced”. The Mathematician: “If now exactly one person enters the house then it will be empty again.”
There are only 10 kinds of people in the world:
Those who know binary
And those who don’t
A logician tells a collegue his wife just had a baby.
– Is it a boy or a girl?
– Yes.

B,
You probably want quotation marks around that string.
For stuff that isn’t funny, but is math related, see: http://scienceblogs.com/goodmath/
There are 10 types of people in this world:
Those who know ternary
Those who don’t
And those who thought this was binary.
I like the Physicist Biologist Mathematician one best.
