Nerdy Joke

At the risk of starting an inane thread (because
I know we avoid those) I was wondering if anyone
had any good "geek" jokes--ones that might relate to
quiz-bowl type material?

For
instance:

*************************************************
The Queen had come to open a new surgical clinic at
the local hospital. The ceremony finishing slightly
early, she decided to visit some patients in other parts
of the hospital.

She walked into the next
ward and went up to the first bed.
"Why are you in
hospital?" she asked.
The man looked at her and said, "My
love is like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in
June."

Somewhat taken aback, she moved on to the next bed. "And
why are you here?" she asked. "Oh, wert thou in the
cauld blast, on yonder lea, on
yonder lea, My
plaidie to the angry air, I'd shelter thee, I'd shelter
thee," came the reply.

Really confused now, the
Queen tried once more. She moved on to the next bed.
"Why are you in hospital?" she asked. "Wee sleeket,
cowren
tim'rous beastie, O what a panic's in thy breastie!" was
the answer.

The Queen turned to the hospital
manager. "Is this the psychiatric ward?", she
asked.

"No, it's the Burns Unit."
