Five ways of understanding engineers
I got this in an email from a friend. Enjoy!
Understanding Engineers - Take One Two engineering students crossing the campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?" The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday minding my own business when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want." The first engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fit." Understanding Engineers - Take Two To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be. Understanding Engineers - Take Three A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude!" The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greens keeper. Let's have a word with him." "Hi George! Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?" The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group was silent for a moment. The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?" Understanding Engineers - Take Four My personal Favorite What is the difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers? Mechanical Engineers build the weapons and Civil Engineers build the targets. Understanding Engineers - Take Five The graduate with a Science degree asks, "Why does it work?" The graduate with an Engineering degree asks, "How does it work?" The graduate with an Accounting degree asks, "How much will it cost?" The graduate with an Arts degree asks, "Do you want fries with that?"

i thought #5 was the funniest of all! #3 was good too.
as for you, lech, please refrain from calling anything (or anyone, for that matter) ignorant. it becomes annoying when that's about your only response to statements made with which you do not agree.

It's not about me agreeing or disagreeing... you cant agree or disagree with a joke anyways lol It's about joke being taseless and based on groundless stereotype.

aren't most jokes based on stereotypes, anyways? that's what makes 'em so damn funny! i mean, the obvious 'blonde jokes'... if you think about it, a vast number of jokes are based on stereotypes, so just deal with it...

Very funny. I think #2 is my favorite. I heard #1 before sometime with something other than engineers, but can't remember what.
