My favorite jokes
>>A man was walking along the beach and found a bottle. He looked around
>>and didn't see anyone so he opened it. A genie appeared and thanked the
>>man for letting him out. The genie said, "For your kindness I will grant
>>you one wish, but only one."
>>
>>The man thought for a minute and said, "I have always wanted to go to
>>Hawaii but have never been able to because I'm afraid of flying and
>>ships make me claustrophobic and ill. So I wish for a road to be built
>>from here to Hawaii."
>>
>>The genie thought for a few minutes and said, "No, I don't think I can
>>do that. Just think of all the work involved with the pilings needed to
>>hold up the hiway and how deep they would have to be to reach the bottom
>>of the ocean. Think of all the pavement that would be needed. No, that
>>is just too much to ask."
>>
>>The man thought for a minute and then told the genie, "There is one
>>other thing that I have always wanted. I would like to be able to
>>understand women. What makes them laugh and cry, why are they
>>temperamental, why are they so difficult to get along with? Basically,
>>what makes them tick?"
>>
>>The genie considered for a few minutes and said, "So, do you want two
>>lanes or four?"

> About your salary:
> Engineers and scientists will never make as much money as business

> Now a rigorous mathematical proof that explains why this is true:

> Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
> Postulate 2: Time is Money.

> As every engineer knows,

> Work
> -------- = Power
> Time

> Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have

> Work
> --------- = Knowledge
> Money

> Solving for Money, we get:

> Work
> --------- = Money
> Knowledge

> Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity

> Conclusion: The less you know, the more money you make.
