Engineer/Physicist/Mathematician/Sheep joke

An Engineer, a Physicist, and a Mathematician are all on a train in Germany. The engineer looks out of the window and sees a black sheep, and says to the other two, "Hmm, the sheep here are all black." To which the Physicist replies, "Well.. At least one sheep here is black." "No, no, no, no.." interjects the Mathematician, "at least one sheep has black wool on one side."

Einstein passed by and said: "Sorry you are all wrong! At least one sheep has black wool on one side at this moment !"

Just remember that 1 is approximately equal to 2, for large values of 1 and small values of 2.

Two strands of DNA are walking down the street. One says to the other, "Do these genes make me look fat?"
 
I went to see the Bermuda Philharmonic Orchestra last night. Half way through, the bloke on the triangle disappeared.

... René Descartes was sitting at the bar when the bartender asked if he wanted a re-fill.
He said "No, I don't think ..." and disappeared.

I would like to think that René and the Triangle player disappeared to the same place and lived happily ever after, but I suspect that, sadly, this was not the case!

According to Schrödinger they did and did not; we won't know until we look.

And, according to Gödel, we can't "see" everything until we look from the outside.
