Silly Sunday: Teacher Arrested

Not so breaking news:

NEW YORK -- A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted 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 did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. 'Al-gebra is a problem for us', the Attorney General said. 'They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values.'
 
They use secret code names like 'X' and 'Y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined that 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.'
 
White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President.

Are you saying Bush is a derivative? Are you implying we should expect something rational from our government?
Sorry couldn't help it. Funny one today

That is just bad... and sadly, I could see it happening.. of course if Al-gebra is that bad just consider the crimes geometry has committed..
