Teacher Arrested - member of new terrorist group

Some say I'm in danger being here in Iraq. Maybe so but for "Joe Public" back in the motherland of the good ole U.S.A. I say, you are the ones in danger. You, my people are the brave ones.

Anyone can be a terrorist back home. It could be the average person at the A & P store wearing a scarf around his face carrying a AK-47 (with a banana clip) squeezing the tomotes to hard in the produce section or your hometown flying school advertizing flying lessons for "one way" trips at the low cost of $1,000,000 (Arab money not accepted). Or it could even be a school teacher! Like this story I just read.

A Teacher at Phoenix Sky Harbor airport today, an individual later discovered to be a public school teacher was arrested trying to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a setsquare, a slide rule, and a calculator. At a morning press conference, an FBI spokesperson said he believes the man is a member of the notorious al-gebra movement. He is being charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. "Al-gebra is a fearsome cult," the spokesman said. "They desire average solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every triangle'." When asked to comment on the arrest, one of the arresting officers said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes."

Hope you enjoyed. (:
