>> Subject: Teacher Arrested

>>
>>>
>>> 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 Alberto Gonzalez said he
>>> believes the man is a member of the notorious al-gebra movement. He is
>>> being charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.
>>>
>>> "Al-gebra is a fearsome cult," Gonzalez said. "They desire average
>>> solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a
>>> search of absolute values. 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 coordinates
>>> in every country.
>>>
>>> As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'there are 3 sides to
>>> every triangle'." 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."
