 WHAT money?

 George Pope, Have you read this one. . . .

  The man at the bar, deep in private thoughts of his own, turned to a
woman just passing and said, "Pardon me, miss, do you happen to have the
time?"

  In a strident voice she responded, "How dare you make such a
proposition to me?"

  The man snapped to attention in surprise and was uncomfortable aware
that every pair of eyes in the place had turned in their direction. He
mumbled, "I just asked the time, miss."

  In a voice even louder, the woman shrieked, "I will call the police if
you say another word!"

  Grabbing his drink, and embarrassed very nearly to death, the man
hastened to the far end of the room and huddled at a table, holding his
breath and wondering how soon he could sneak out the door.

  Not more than half a minute had passed when the woman joined him. In a
quiet voice, she said, "I am terribly sorry, sir, to have embarrassed
you, but I am a psychology student at the university and I am writing a
thesis on the reaction of human beings to sudden shocking statements."

  The man stared at her for three seconds, then he leaned back and
bellowed, "You'll do all that for me all night for just ten dollars?"

  Science has a language of its own which sometimes puzzles laymen. The
word 'obvious' is a case in point.

  Thus a professor of physics, deriving some profound point of theory
for the class, scribbled an equation on the board and said, "From this,
it is obvious that we can proceed to write the following relationship__"
and he scribbled a second equation on the board.

  Then he paused. He stared hard at the two equations and said, "Wait a
while. I may be wrong __"

  He sat down, seized a pad and started to write furiously. He paused
for thought, crossed out what he had written, and began over. In this
fashion, half an hour passed while the class held its breath and sat in
absolute silence.

  Finally, the professor rose with an air of satisfaction and said,
"Yes, I was right in the first place. It is obvious that the second
equation follows from the first."
