Hi Madhu!

Whew!   ;-)

Yeah, but on the downside I'm bummed because it keeps me away from the 
restaurant grand opening.  ;(

Hows that going anyway?  I haven't checked your restaurant blog lately.

Q: What's a polar bear? 
A: A rectangular bear after a coordinate transform.  


Or maybe some limericks:

A Dozen, a Gross and a Score, 
plus three times the square root of four, 
divided by seven, 
plus five times eleven, 
equals nine squared and not a bit more. 


A graduate student from Trinity 
Computed the cube of infinity; 
But it gave him the fidgets 
To write down all those digits, 
So he dropped math and took up divinity. 


A burleyque dancer, a pip 
Named Virginia, could peel in a zip; 
But she read science fiction 
and died of constriction 
Attempting a Moebius strip.
