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,
the attorney general 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," a Justice Department spokesman 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."

oh thats just bad... so very bad
