JOKE TIME SUDOKU
Arguing with an engineer is like trying to teach a pig to sing.
It wastes your time, and annoys the pig.
Five surgeons were taking a coffee break and were
discussing their work. The first said, “I think accountants are the
easiest to operate on. You open them up and
everything inside is numbered.”
The second said, “I think librarians are the easiest to
operate on. You open them up and everything inside is
inalphabetical order.”
The third said, “I like to operate on electricians.

The fourth one said, “I like to operate on lawyers. They’re
heartless, spineless, gutless, and their heads and their butts
are interchangeable.”
Fifth surgeon said, “I like Engineers...they always understand
when you have a few parts left over at the end...”
