Subject: Nerds
This truck driver hauling a tractor-trailer load of computers stops for a
beer. As he approaches the bar he sees a big sign on the door saying "NERDS
NOT ALLOWED -- ENTER AT OWN RISK!" He goes in and sits down. The bartender
comes over to him, sniffs, says he smells kind of nerdy, asks him what he
does for a living. The truck driver says he drives a truck, and the smell is
just from the computers he is hauling. The bartender says OK, truck drivers
are not nerds, and serves him a beer. As he is sipping his beer, a skinny
guy walks in with tape around his glasses, a pocket protector with twelve
kinds of pens and pencils, and a belt at least a foot too long. The
bartender, without saying a word, pulls out a shotgun and blows the guy
away. The truck driver asks him why he did that. The bartender said not to
worry, the nerds are overpopulating the Silicon Valley, and are in season
now. You don't even need a license, he said.
So the truck driver finishes his beer, gets back in his truck, and heads
back onto the freeway. Suddenly he veers to avoid an accident, and the load
shifts. The back door breaks open and computers spill out all over the
freeway. He jumps out and sees a crowd already forming, grabbing up the
computers. They are all engineers, accountants and programmers wearing the
nerdiest clothes he has ever seen. He can't let them steal his whole load.
So remembering what happened in the bar, he pulls out his gun and starts
blasting away, felling several of them instantly. A highway patrol officer
comes zooming up and jumps out of the car screaming at him to stop. The
truck driver said, "What's wrong? I thought nerds were in season."
"Well, sure," said the patrolman, "But you can't bait 'em."

-if you have to ask get out of the way-
Have you ever been stopped by a traffic cop and, while he was
writing a ticket or giving you a warning, you got the feeling that
he would just love to yank you out of the car, right through the
window, and smash your face into the front fender?...
