Ok I have a speech to deliver in a few weeks. It is on neutrino research at the south pole. I will be leaving soon to go to McMurdo Bay. I am only 19 and a Sophomore in College after this semester. I am very excited but would like to break the ice in style(pun intended)lol. So I need some of your best Physics and math jokes. Thanks everyone.

How about: "My mother-in-law is so dense she absorbs neutrinos"?
 
Ha that is good this is what I was looking for please keep them coming, thanks
 
Neutrino astronomy is one of the only branches of astronomy where it's okay to get stuck on the day shift.

I've got nothin...
 
Just something funny about the antarctic project you're referring to that a friend of mine pointed out to me. In HP Lovecraft's books Yog Sothoth's appearance is described as that of several iridescent globes and the antarctic nuetrino detector array is a series of mirrored globes.
 
Sort of related:

The Americans have astronauts, the Russians have cosmonauts, the Italians have Specimen.
(From the former, part Ukrainian bass player)
 
Q: What happens when neutrinos drink beer?
A: It goes right through them.
 
If Newt Gingrich and Janet Reno had a love child its name would be "Neutrino".

(I have to take the blame for this one:blushing:)
