As the head of a world wide tribe of nerds I truely enoyed those.
You wished for more, here you go:

Ratio of an igloo's circumference to its diameter = Eskimo Pi

2000 pounds of Chinese soup = Won ton

Time between slipping on a peel and smacking the pavement = 1 bananosecond

365.25 days of drinking low-calorie soda = 1 lite year

Half of a large intestine = 1 semicolon

1000 aches = 1 kilohurtz

453.6 graham crackers = 1 pound cake

1 million microphones = 1 phone

1 trillion microphones = 1 megaphone

10 cards = 1 decacards

1 millionth of a fish = 1 microfiche

10 rations = 1 decoration

2 monograms = 1 diagram


You Might Be An Engineer (or nerd) If...
* You have no life - and you can PROVE it mathematically.
* You know vector calculus but you can't remember how to do long division.
* You chuckle whenever anyone says "centrifugal force".
* You've actually used every single function on your graphing calculator.
* It is sunny and 70 degrees outside, and you are working on a computer.
* You know how to integrate a chicken and can take the derivative of water.
* You think in "math".
* You've calculated that the World Series actually diverges.
* You hesitate to look at something because you don't want to break down its wave function.
* The Humane society has you arrested because you actually performed the Schrodinger's Cat experiment.
* You can translate English into Binary.
* You have to bring a jacket with you, in the middle of summer, because there's a wind-chill factor in the lab.
* You consider ANY non-engineering course "easy".
* When your professor asks you where your homework is, you claim to have accidentally determined its momentum so precisely, that according to Heisenberg it could be anywhere in the universe.
* The blinking 12:00 on someone's VCR draws you in like a tractor beam to fix it.
* You bring a computer manual / technical journal as vacation reading.
* You can't help eavesdropping in computer stores... and correcting the salesperson.
* You go on the rides at Disneyland and sit backwards to see how they do the special effects.
* You have a habit of destroying things in order to see how they work.
* You have never backed up your hard drive.
* You think that when people around you yawn, it's because they didn't get enough sleep.
* You would rather get more dots per inch than miles per gallon
* You've ever calculated how much you make per second.
* You understood more than five of these jokes.
* You make a copy of this list, and post it on your door (or your home page*!)
