You're just telling it wrong.”
A physicist, a mathematician and an engineer stay in a hotel.
The engineer is awakened by a smell and gets up to check it. She finds a fire in the hallway, sees a nearby fire extinguisher and after extinguishing it, goes back to bed.
Later that night, the physicist gets up, again because of the smell of fire. She quickly gets up and sees the fire in the hallway. After waking the engineer and mathematician for safety, she calculates air pressure, flame temperature and humidity as well as distance to the fire and projected trajectory and extinguishes the fire with the least amount of fluid.
Later, the mathematician awakens to find the embers of the fire still smoldering. After giving much thought to the problem, she gets up and lights it up to an actual fire. Then she goes back to sleep, satisfied that the problem has been reduced to a previously solved one.
Entropy ain't what it used to be.
A group of open source developers are at a team building seminar. When during the night a fire breaks out in one of the developer's rooms, he quickly tears pages out of his notebook, lighting them on fire one by one. He then runs down the hall sliding sheets of burning paper under other developers' doors.
After the building burns to the ground the fire marshal asks the developer how the fire spread so fast.
He responds, “I thought distributing the problem would lead to finding a solution faster.”
A physicist, an engineer, and a statistician go out hunting. The physicist calculates the trajectory using ballistic equations, but assumes no air resistance, so his shot falls 5 meters short. The engineer adds a fudge factor for air resistance, and his shot lands 5 meters long. The statistician yells “We got 'em!”

She asks Noah about it, and he says he'll take care of it. A week later, Noah brings his wife out to the workshop, and shows her the snakes in their basket on top of the picnic table he just built. “How is this going to get them to reproduce?” she asks. “Trust me,” he replies. A few days after that, she notices there are eggs in the basket. She is delighted, and asks Noah how the picnic table could have possibly helped. He says, “My dear, even adders can multiply on a log table.”
