Weapons of Math Destruction

Post by ccb056 »

At New York's Kennedy airport today, an individual later discovered to be a
public school teacher was arrested trying to board a flight while in
possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a
calculator.

At a morning press conference, Attorney general John Ashcroft said he
believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-geebra movement. He is being
charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.

"Al-geebra is a fearsome ," Ashcroft said. "They desire average solutions
by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of
absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to
themselves as 'unknowns,' but we have determined they belong to a common
denominator of the axis of medieval with co-ordinates in every country. As
the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every
triangle,'" Ashcroft declared.

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, "If God had wanted
us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more
fingers and toes. I am gratified that our government has given us a sine
that it is intent on protracting us from these math-dogs who are willing to
disintegrate us with calculus disregard.

"Murky statisticians love to inflict plane on every sphere of influence,"
the President said, adding: "Under the circumferences, we must differentiate
their root, make our point, and draw the line." President Bush warned,
"These weapons of math instruction have the potential to decimal everything
in their math on a scale never before seen unless we become exponents of a
Higher Power and begin to factor-in random facts of vertex."

Attorney General Ashcroft said, "As our Great Leader would say, 'Read my
ellipse!'" Here is one principle of which he is certain: though they continue to
multiply, their days are numbered as the hypotenuse tightens around their
necks.
