Black Sheep

An engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician were on a train heading north, and had just crossed the border into Scotland.

  • The engineer looked out of the window and said "Look! Scottish sheep are black!"
  • The physicist said, "No, no. Some Scottish sheep are black."
  • The mathematician looked irritated. "There is at least one field, containing at least one sheep, of which at least one side is black."
Sort:  

HaHa! Yes, that hits the spot! Tell me what you define as something and I'll find out who you are.

I have the hardest time with the mathematician. He seems to me to be someone who would walk around every sheep once to check the definition. LOL although one may also assume that he wears the greatest mischief on his neck. According to my mood.

Thanks for it!

At some point you'd think they'd figure out that sheep that are solid black on only one side are exceptionally rare.
