You might be a physics major if... |

Due to the enormous workload involved in physics classes combined with
stress and lack of sleep, physics students often forget (either by
accident, defense mechanism, or intentionally) what their major really
is. Thus, as a physics major, I took it upon myself to create a small
list of indicators to help us all remember what we really are.
YOU MIGHT BE A PHYSICS MAJOR...
- if you have no life - and you can PROVE it mathematically.
- if you enjoy pain.
- if you know vector calculus but you can't remember how to do long division.
- if you chuckle whenever anyone says "centrifugal force."
- if you've actually used every single function on your graphing calculator.
- if when you look in a mirror, you see a physics major.
- if it is sunny and 70 degrees outside, and you are working on a computer.
- if you frequently whistle the theme song to "MacGyver."
- if you always do homework on Friday nights.
- if you know how to integrate a chicken and can take the derivative of water.
- if you think in "math."
- if you've calculated that the World Series actually diverges.
- if you hesitate to look at something because you don't want to break down
its wave function.
- if you have a pet named after a scientist.
- if you laugh at jokes about mathematicians.
- if the Humane society has you arrested because you actually performed the
Schrodinger's Cat experiment.
- if you can translate English into Binary.
- if you can't remember what's behind the door in the science building
which says "Exit."
- if you have to bring a jacket with you, in the middle of summer, because
there's a wind-chill factor in the lab.
- If you are completely addicted to caffeine.
- if you avoid doing anything because you don't want to contribute to the
eventual heat-death of the universe.
- if you consider ANY non-science course "easy."
- if when your professor asks you where your homework is, you claim to have
accidentally determined its momentum so precisely, that according to
Heisenberg it could be anywhere in the universe.
- if the "fun" center of your brain has deteriorated from lack of use.
- if you'll assume that a "horse" is a "sphere" in order to make the math
easier.
- if you understood more than five of these indicators.
- if you make a hard copy of this list, and post it on your door.
If these indicators apply to you, there is good reason to suspect that
you might be classified as a physics major. I hope this clears up any
confusion.

About JokeTribe
These all are jokes that we've had the good fortune of having other people
email to us or we've retrieved off the Internet. Over time, we've sent them on
to the subscribers of our various jokes lists.
Since we're talking some ten years of managing these emails lists, we've built
up a pretty sizeable (and FUNNY) collection of jokes. They cover pretty much
any category and topic that you can imagine; from clean jokes to dirty jokes
and most everything in between, including the much loved lawyer jokes and the
blonde jokes and the yo mama jokes as well as those redneck jokes.
Remember, we did NOT author them, but we did take the time to convert the text
files to html.
If you are certain of the authorship of any of these,
email us the author's name
along with relevant information on how we can verify that they truly are the
author so we can give them the credit that they deserve.
The difference between web surfing with IE and Firefox is the difference between body armor and a trendy cotton vest
We've all heard the stories. Stories about innocently
searching the internet with Internet Explorer when, all
of a sudden, all the alarms are going off with your virus
scanner. Programs are installing themselves. Warnings
about Smitfraud-C, SpyAxe, and Vcodec are popping up on
your screen.
And some of us have had firsthand experience. Firsthand
experience that has led us away from IE and to other
browsers like Firefox.
And why is that? Well, virus writers are generally going
to be trying to get the most bang for their buck, ,just like
everyone else. That's why. And IE currently provides them
with that. It still has the largest market share, likely
due in large part that it comes preinstalled on most computers.
But just because it's preinstalled doesn't mean you have to
use it and expose yourself to all the spyware and virii
targetted to it. You can do what an ever growing portion of
users out there are doing. You can switch to
