A buddy of mine told me this one in high school.
I regret that I'm unable to gesticulate as
spastically as she did when she told me, but here
goes:
A hydrogen ion walks into a bar, and the bartender
says, "Why so glum?"
The ion says, "I lost an
electron!"
The bartender says, "Really? Why, that's awful! Did
you look in your closet?"
The ion just
nods.
The bartender says, "Well, how about under the bed? A
lot of people lose things under the bed."
The ion
just rests his head on his hands and says, "I looked
everywhere!"
So the bartender says to him, "Well, are you
absolutely sure you lost this electron?"
And the ion just
gives him a look and says, "Of course I'm sure! I'm
POSITIVE!"
Yes, I know it's awful :). But someone else
asked.
Yours in fromage,
Victoria
