That reminds me of one I had forgotten. Thanks John!

Ego and superego walk into a bar. The doorman stops them and says, "I'm going to need to see some ID."

“Action on behalf of life transforms. Because the relationship between self and the world is reciprocal, it is not a question of first getting enlightened or saved and then acting. As we work to heal the earth, the earth heals us.” ~ Robin Wall Kimmerer

I just read a comment by John Glenn.  When he was sitting on top of the rocket during countdown,  he couldn't get the thought out of his head that every piece of equipment he was in...and on....was made by the lowest bidder.

Silver and gold walk into a bar.  The bar tender says “Eh you, get outta here!”
Gold turns around and heads back out.

How can you tell the difference between a chemist and a plumber?
Ask them to pronounce "unionized."

Because it was a polar bear.

I'm not 50-something. I'm $49.95, plus shipping and handling.

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

During a linguistics  lecture the professor declared that "In English, a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, in no language in the world can a double positive form a negative."
Then a voice from the back of the room said "Yeah, right."

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. One orders a beer, the next a half a beer, the next a quarter, the next an eighth... Shaking his head, the bartender puts two beers on the counter and says, "Come on, guys. Know your limits."

A mathematician and an engineer find a genie. This genie will grant them both the object of their greatest desire. There's a catch, though. The object will appear at the other end of the room. Every step they take towards it will be half as long as the one before.

Hearing this, the mathematician pulls his hair and wails, "That's impossible! I'll never get it!" He hangs his head and walks out of the room.

The engineer just nods. "That's okay. I can get close enough."

A waiter gives a gentleman a cup of coffee. The gentleman takes a sip and spits it out.

He turns to the waiter and says, “Waiter! This coffee tastes like mud!”

The waiter, looking surprised, turns to the gentleman and says, “But, sir, it’s fresh ground!”
