After applying some simple algebra to some trite phrases and cliches
  a new understanding can be reached of the secret to wealth and success.

  Here it goes.

      Knowledge is Power
      Time is Money

  and as every engineer knows,
      Power is Work over Time.

  So, substituting algebraic equations for these time worn bits of
  wisdom,
  we get:
      K = P    (1)
      T = M    (2)
      P = W/T  (3)

  Now, do a few simple substitutions:

      Put W/T in for P in equation (1), which yields:
      K = W/T  (4)

  Put M in for T into equation (4), which yields:

      K = W/M  (5).

  Now we've got something.  Expanding back into English, we get:

     Knowledge equals Work over Money.

  What this MEANS is that:

     1. The More You Know, the More Work You Do, and
     2. The More You Know, the Less Money You Make.


  Solving for Money, we get:

     M = W/K  (6)
     Money equals Work Over Knowledge.

  From equation (6) we see that Money approaches infinity as Knowledge
  approaches 0, regardless of the Work done.

  What THIS MEANS is:

     The More you Make, the Less you Know.

  Solving for Work, we get

     W = M x K  (7)
     Work equals Money times Knowledge

     From equation (7) we see that Work approaches 0 as Knowledge
  approaches 0.

  What THIS MEANS is:

      The stupid rich do little or no work.


  Working out the socioeconomic implications of this breakthrough is
  left as an exercise for the reader.

A blonde gets on an airplane and sits down in the first class section.  The 
stewardess tells her she must move to coach because she doesn't have a 
first class ticket.

The blonde replies, "I'm blonde, I'm smart and I have a good job and I'm 
staying in first class until we reach Jamaica."

The stewardess gets the head stewardess who asks the woman to leave and she 
says:
 "I'm blonde, I'm smart, I have a good job and I'm staying in first class
until we reach Jamaica."

The stewardesses don't know what to do because they have to get the rest of
the passengers seated to take off, so they get the co-pilot.  The co-pilot 
goes up to the blonde and whispers in her ear.  She immediately gets up and 
goes to her seat in the coach section.  The head stewardess asks the 
co-pilot what he said to get her to move.

The co-pilot replies, "I told her the front half of the airplane wasn't 
going to Jamaica"
