Catherine Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Two physicists were riding in a hot air balloon and were blown off course sailing over a mountain trail, and were completely lost. They spotted a jogger running on the trail and they shouted, "Can you tell us where we are?" After a few minutes, the jogger yelled back, "You're up in a balloon." One physicist says to the other, "Just our luck to run into a mathematician!" "How do you know he was a mathematician?" asked the other. "First, he took a long time to answer. Second, his answer was 100% correct. And third, it was totally useless!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bstaxes Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Math is my field. If you ask the right question you get the right answer. You are up in a balloon. Even a child would tell you that. I do think it is funny and I take no offense to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
