All the maths symbols (or whatever you call them) were at a party. 'Cos x' noticed that 'e to the x' (e to the par of x) was standing on his own. So he and 'Tan x' went over and asked 'e to the x' to join them for a drink.
'e to the x' replied, "No, I don't integrate'.

Geek alert!!!!

You're a geek..... aren't you Orior? 

Yeap, grade 2 actually. I'm aiming to be grade 3 by next year (and get my golf handicap down too). Sure what the feck else is there to do when Armagh are out of the All-Ireland?

Since e is transcendental, and therefore irrational, its value cannot be given exactly as a finite or eventually repeating decimal.

Sorry guys, I should have said, its that bit above that cracks me up everytime.







PS. I used to have a girlfriend that was transcendental once a month.

The mathematical constant e is the unique real number such that the value of the derivative (slope of the tangent line) of f(x) = ex at the point x = 0 is exactly 1. The function ex so defined is called the exponential function, and its inverse is the natural logarithm, or logarithm to base e.

The number e is one of the most important in mathematics alongside the additive and multiplicative identities 0 and 1, the imaginary unit i, and π, the circumference to diameter ratio for any circle in a plane. It has a number of equivalent definitions; some of them are given below.

The number e is occasionally called Euler's number after the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler, or Napier's constant in honor of the Scottish mathematician John Napier who introduced logarithms. (e is not to be confused with γ – the Euler–Mascheroni constant, sometimes called simply Euler's constant.)

Since e is transcendental, and therefore irrational, its value cannot be given exactly as a finite or eventually repeating decimal. The numerical value of e truncated to 20 decimal places is:

Paudi is saying "Hey is your name Bainisteoir? So's mine!"

No official announcements just yet Ziggy, sent you a pm though.

Will you tell us who you used to work for after you've left?

[This will cultivate on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65 Million miles of earth.]

Two moons on 27th August 2007*
27th August; the day the Whole World is waiting for .....
Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting in August.
It will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye.
This will cultivate on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65 Million miles
of earth. Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am.
It will look like the earth has 2 moons.
The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287.

got this today, can any of you budding astronomers shead any light on this?

Duck!!!!!

[he has had a lot to be bitter about with all the violent deaths in his family in the Troubles]

Willie's a stange one all-right and pretty bitter - though he has had a lot to be bitter about with all the violent deaths in his family in the Troubles - but he certainly knows how to annoy militant republicans, even those who say the war is over and have accepted partition and the Queen's shilling.

If their war really is over, shouldn't they be embracing Willie, too?

Willies family were as bitter as he was, and used their positions to abuse the local population in south armagh.

Around four o'clock all my work colleagues become sheep farmers.










Lets get the flock outta here!

Generally people Mayobridge are kind souls, like the Mallons, the Sands and of course the Lindens.

Are you really from Mayobridge?

Glad to hear that Bud.

I'd like to see Joe O'Reilly and Jacqueline Crymble get it together. Couldn't we put them into a Big Brother type prison cell and watch the fireworks?

Jacqueline was recently found guilty of murdering her husband in Richhill Co Armagh http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/6244548.stm

Also in the article "He added that playing games outside NI next February and March would be a means of generating revenue."

Now that it has already hosted one of Ireland's partitionist soccer teams, I wonder if the most convenient large sports stadium outside NI would be made available to them.

Yes, it would gerenate revenue for Ibrox. Dont expect an outcry from the anti-Maze crew who complained about the possibility of having to travel 15 mile down the road.

There is not a snowballs chance in hell of it going to Jones Road.

Orior, it's taking all night to simpsonise my fat head. Did it work for you?

It took a while, but yes

If the Muslim extremists are using Google Earth for target selection then maybe you're better not on it.
