BREAKING NEWS

A secondary school teacher was arrested today at Heathrow Airport as he attempted to board an international flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a pair of compasses, a slide-rule and a calculator.
At a press conference, a Border Control spokesman said he believes him to be a member of the notorious extremist Al-Gebra movement.
He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the Police with carrying weapons of maths instruction.
'Al-Gebra can be a problem for all of us', the Spokesman said. 'They derive solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values. They maintain secrecy by using secret codenames such "X" and "Y" and refer to themselves as "unknowns" but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country.'
When asked to comment on the arrest, senior Member of the House of Commons said "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of maths instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes - As the Greek Philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are three sides to every triangle".
Fellow colleagues in The House told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by their Leader.

Converting the bear

A Catholic Priest, a Baptist Preacher and a Rabbi were all serving as Chaplains in northern Ontario. They would meet frequently to talk shop. The comment was made that preaching to people was fairly easy; the real challenge would be to preach to a bear and try to convert it! They decided to experiment. All three would go into the woods, find a bear, preach to it, and attempt to convert it to their religion.

A week later, the three men met again.

Father Flannery, who had his arm in a sling, was on crutches and had bandages on his body, began: "Well," he said, "I went to find a bear. When I found him, I read to him The Sermon on the Mount. Well, that bear began to slap me around, so I grabbed my holy water, sprinkled him and made the sign of the cross on his head and he became as gentle as a lamb."

Reverend Billy Bob spoke next He was in a wheelchair, and had his arms and legs in casts. He exclaimed, "Brothers, I went out and I found a bear; then I read to him from The Old Testament, but that bear wanted nothing to do with me. I took hold of him and we began to wrestle, until we fell into the creek. I quickly dunked and baptised him. He became as gentle as a lamb. Hallelujah!"

The Priest and the Reverend looked down at the Rabbi, lying in a hospital bed. He was in a body cast and traction - IV's and monitors running in and out of him, in really bad shape. The Rabbi looked up and said: "Looking back on it, circumcision may not have been the best way to start."
