At New York's Kennedy airport today, an individual (later discovered to be a
public school teacher) was arrested trying to board a domestic flight while
in the possession of a ruler, a protractor, a compass, a set square and a
calculator. Attourney General John Ashcroft believes the man in a member of
the notorious Al-gebra movement, and he is being charged with carrying
weapons of math instruction.

So what's your angle here?

It's just another one of Myron's parabolas that, being so full of
hyperbola, go off on a tangent.

I think Myron has a beef with any word with Arabic etymology, algebra
being one of them, alcohol too
