[SOC] TEACHER ARRESTED!

[Bob Roske]

A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International 
Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a 
protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a calculator.  At a morning 
press conference, the New York Attorney General said he believes the man is 
a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement.  He did not identify the man 
who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons
of math instruction.

'Al-gebra is a problem for us,' the Attorney General said.  'They desire 
solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a 
search of absolute value.   They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and 
refer to themselves as 'unknowns,' but we have determined they belong to a 
common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every 
country.  As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides 
to every triangle.' '
