A mathematician, an engineer, and a physicist all agree: Platonic Realms cooks up new jokes, puns, and limericks every day! 


Joke o'the Day:

A doctor, a lawyer, and a mathematician were discussing the relative merits of having a wife or a mistress.
     The lawyer opined, "A mistress is better. If you have a wife and want a divorce, it causes all kinds of legal problems."
     But the doctor replied, "It’s better to have a wife, because the sense of security lowers your stress and is good for your health."
     The mathematician shook his head. "You are both wrong. It is best to have both, so that when your wife thinks you’re with the mistress, and the mistress thinks you’re with your wife, you can get some mathematics done."



A Lame One:

What do you get when you cross a mountain goat and a mountain climber? Nothing – you can't cross two scalars.


Poetry Corner:

A mathematician confided
That a Möbius strip is one-sided.
     You'd get quite a laugh
     If you cut it in half,
For it stays in one piece when divided.



How They Do It:

Geometers do it with involutions.
