  A Math Problem

  There's a box with a hole at each end and there's a rabbit in the
  box. The rabbit sticks his head out of the hole in one end, and a
  minute later he sticks it out the other end.  Half a minute later,
  his head appears at the opposite end, a fourth of a minute later
  it appears at the end opposite to that one, an eighth of a minute
  later...etc., etc.

     |\   /|  How long will it take before the rabbit sticks its
      \|_|/   head out of both ends of the box at the same time?
      /. .\
     =\_Y_/=  Answer:  In theory, two minutes.  In practice,
      {>o<}   no answer is possible unless you split hares.

            .-"""""-.       A secret agent was sent to Ireland to
            \       /       pick up some very sensitive information
            |.-----.|       from an agent called Murphy.  His

  "Oh," said the farmer, "you're looking for Murphy the spy - he's
  in the village over the other direction."

  In The Garden Of Eden

  One day in the Garden of Eden, Eve calls out to God.  "Lord,
  I have a problem!"

  "What's the problem, Eve?"

  "Lord, I know you created me and provided this beautiful garden
  and all of these wonderful animals and that hilarious comedic
  snake, but I'm just not happy."

  "Why is that, Eve?" came the reply from above.

  "Lord, I am lonely, and I'm sick to death of apples."

      <}\         "Well Eve, in that case, I have a solution.
      .--\--.     I shall create a man for you."
     /   `   \
     |       |    "What's a man, Lord?"
 jgs  \     /
       '-'-'      "This man will be a flawed creature, with many
                  bad traits. He'll lie, cheat, and be vain-
  glorious; all in all, he'll give you a hard time. But, he'll
  be bigger, faster, and will like to hunt and kill things. He
  will look silly when he's aroused, but since you've been
  complaining, I'll create him in such a way that he will satisfy
  your physical needs.  He will revel in childish things like
  fighting and kicking a ball about. He won't be too smart, so
  he'll also need your advice to think properly."

  "Sounds great." says Eve, with an ironically raised eyebrow,
  "What's the catch, Lord?"

  "Well... you can have him on one condition."

  "What's that, Lord?"                             <},
                                                 .-'\'-.
  "As I said, he'll be proud, arrogant, and     ;_,._.,_;
  self-admiring... So you'll have to let him      } ,'{
  believe that I made him first. Just           ;`'-'-'`;
  remember, it's our little secret -        jgs  '--'--'
