I found this: when a woman and a man make love, the woman gets excited. She is now metastable and decays to her normal state through "baby emission" with a mean lifetime of roughly nine months.

Okay "I got one". Heisenberg gets pulled over for speeding and the officer asks, do you know how fast you were going? no replies Heisenberg but I knew exactly where I was.

That's the short version of this one ...

Theorem: The hyperbolic partial differential equation of waves has a solution.
Proof: Let us first introduce the standard short-hand notation for the d'Alembert operator
$$\frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial^2}{\partial t^2}-\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2}-\frac{\partial^2}{\partial y^2}-\frac{\partial^2}{\partial z^2} \equiv \Box$$

This isn't quite as daft as it sounds, if you replace "all his body functions" with "his heart". That's what a defibrillator does: the device that you see in medical dramas applying an electric shock across someone's chest to revive them. The shock doesn't restart a stopped heart, as is often implied by the drama; it stops a misfiring heart, and then the stopped heart automatically reboots.

This doesn't make sense for a Ph.D. The original joke was "Why God never got tenure."
