Sooo, Plato, Aristotle, and Descartes are all getting on an
airplane and the stewardess asks each if they would like a drink.
Mr. Plato, would you like a drink?
Why, yes, I'll have the 7up.
Mr. Aristotle, would would you like a drink?
Why yes, I'll have the ginger ale.
Mr. Descartes, would you like a drink?
I think not...
and POOF, he disappears!

OK, that was silly...
A man is speaking with God. Ha asks God:
Is it true that to you, a million years is like a second?
It is true...
Is it also true that to you a million dollars is like a penny?
That is also true...
Then, could I please have a penny?
God glances down and asks:
Got a second??
Ok ok one more...
A philosophy professor finds a lamp with a genie in it
he takes it to his staff lounge to show his colleagues, rubs
it and is granted one wish only of three by the genie:
He can have:
Great beauty
Great wisdom
or
10 million dollars...
Immediately he asks for great wisdom. Instantly he is granted
his wish. But, he holds his head in his hands and beings to
weep. His colleagues all ask, "what have you learned?
what will you say with your great wisdom to us??
I SHOULDA TAKEN THE MONEY.........
BTW, those Car Talk guys are MIT grads. I love their show.
