Joke day

OK, so Sandy has a joke, and Norma has a joke, and I’m in a weakened state, so much more likely to fall for a bandwagon, and this one really did make me chuckle the other day:

Several scientists were all posed the following question: “What is 2 * 2 ?”
The engineer whips out his slide rule (so it’s old) and shuffles it back and
forth, and finally announces “3.99”.
The physicist consults his technical references, sets up the problem on his
computer, and announces “it lies between 3.98 and 4.02”.
The mathematician cogitates for a while, then announces: “I don’t know what
the answer is, but I can tell you, an answer exists!”.
Philosopher smiles: “But what do you mean by 2 * 2 ?”
Logician replies: “Please define 2 * 2 more precisely.”
The sociologist: “I don’t know, but is was nice talking about it”.
Behavioral Ecologist: “A polygamous mating system”.
Medical Student : “4” All others looking astonished : “How did you know ??”
Medical Student : “I memorized it.”
