ROT13 encryption is not very safe. So use it twice for optimal results.
I apply it four times when I need to be extra-safe.

"What is Pi?"
A mathematician: "Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter."
A computer programmer: "Pi is 3.141592653589 in double precision."
A physicist: "Pi is 3.14159 plus or minus 0.000005."
An engineer: "Pi is about 22/7."
A nutritionist: "Pie is a healthy and delicious dessert!"

There are only 10 kinds of people in the world -- Those who understand bases, those who don't, and those who thought this was going to be a binary joke.

She instantly replied: "That's too obvious. The bus driver came out as well"

a biologist, a physicist and a mathematician are standing at a bus stop.
and empty bus is approaching. 10 people get in.
they watch the bus and see 11 people coming out at the next stop down the road.

Actually the ternary jokes are illogical because of "tertium non datur". In classical logics a property can only have 2 states, true or false. So there can always only be 2^n people with int n >= 1, e.g.
- people who are male and have green eyes,
- people who are not male but have green eyes,
- people who are male and do not have green eyes,
- people who are not male and do not have green eyes.
"There are only 10 kinds of people in the world -- Those who understand bases, those who don't, and those who thought this was going to be a binary joke." That's not true - there are 10 kinds of people if the base of this number is 4, since there are
- people who understand bases and thought this was going to be a binary joke,
- people who do not understand bases and thought this was going to be a binary joke,
- people who understand bases and did not think this was going to be a binary joke,
- people who do not understand bases and did not think this was going to be a binary joke.
The number of people of one kind may be zero but that does not mean that such people cannot exist.

- people who are not male but have green eyes,
- people who are male and do not have green eyes,
- people who are not male and do not have green eyes.

Adok, wat? It's just a categorization of people, not a logical argument.
Oh, I see what you meant..
Hear about the baker who couldn't work out the area of the bases of his round tins?
His pies are squared!
His pies are squared!
You're always overestimating the perimeter.
That's what she said.
A physicist, engineer and mathematician were given a 10 meter long wire net and were asked to hedge the largest area on the ground.
Physicist made a perfect circle.
Engineer made a perfect square.
Mathematician took the net rolled onto himself and said 'I'm outside the area'

i.e. it could be four depending on the application (facepalm!)
linde: But but.. PI _is_ 3! http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=6796
here's one:
knock knock
who's there?
Number 713.57
Number 713.57 who?
Number 57.758
now figure that one out :D (you'll lol)

Old Excel bug?
why PI is sad ?
'cos pi is negative
'cos pi is negative
If you drink too much you need to PI. but it moves in circles. :P
chaos, so, the last segment is longer than the others?
