A mathematician, an engineer, and a physicist all agree: Platonic Realms cooks up new jokes, puns, and limericks every day!
Joke o'the Day:
Three men in a hot-air balloon were lost somewhere over a rocky canyon, when one of them said, "Say, let’s call for help; this canyon will carry our voices very far." The others agreed, so he leaned over the side and yelled, "Helloooo! Where are we?"
His voice echoed far and near several times, but no one answered. Then some minutes later a new voice echoed back, "Helloooo! You’re lost!"
One of the men remarked, "That must have been a mathematician."
"Why?" demanded the others.
"First, he took a long time to answer. Second, the answer was perfectly correct. Finally, it was absolutely useless!"
A Lame One:
Question: Why can't you grow wheat in Z/6Z?
Answer: It's not a field.
Poetry Corner:
A mathematician named Klein
Thought the Möbius Band was divine.
Said he, “If you glue
The edges of two,
You get a weird bottle like mine.”
How They Do It:
Möbius always did it on the same side.
