Journal by turgid

You must remember the old joke about the electron who was stopped for speeding. The policeman said to him, "Sir, do you know how fast you were driving?"

"No," replies the electron.

"You were driving at precisely 100 miles per hour, sir."

Despondently the electron retorts, "Great, now I'm lost."

I was explaining that joke to Turgid jr. recently. When he was much younger, he just thought it was funny because an electron driving a car would be funny.

I said to him that he should ask his Religious Education teacher whether God knows the positions and momenta of all particles in the universe. His RE teacher is also his science teacher.

This should be interesting.

    A talking electron is indeed hilarious.

    That reminds me of the joke about the boy and the talking frog.

    Boy out walking discovers and captures a frog. It turns out it can talk, and says, "Please kiss me! I'll turn into a Princess, and I will repay you with your weight in gold".

    "Nope.", says the boy.

    "Oh!", says the frog/princess, "How about 10 times your weight in gold?"

    "Nope.", says the boy.

    The frog/princess is getting worried now and tries adding in rubies and emeralds, and other material inducements, to all of which the boy says, "Nope."

    Finally in complete desperation, wanting to escape her froggy form she offers to marry the boy so he will inherit her father's kingdom.

    "Nope." says the boy.

    "Why not?", she cries.

    "Well,", the boy says, "if I kiss you, you'll turn into a girl, and I don't like girls; but a talking frog is something worth having!"
