I found my favorite New Yorker cartoon ever online!

Alas, you have to follow the link, 'cause the jpg is just the picture, no caption: http://www.aip.org/history/einstein/ae27.htm It probably helps if you look at the caption first. Still kills me 25 years after I first saw it, at least 75 years after it was drawn.

I used to have it on my dorm room wall at Penn, and would enjoy watching people saunter over, look at it, then wander away all bewilderated. So if you don't like it or don't get it, it just means you'd fit right in in the Ivy League. I certainly never did!

1. C'mon! Is fonny!

Link is to an Albert Einstein page (as the caption is an Einstein quote). Nothing nefarious, I swear. (I'd stick an exclamation mark on that sentence, too, but I've used up my quota.)

2. It'd probably be funnier . . .

it if were less true.

I absolutely loved the link to Einstein's handwritten manuscript. Thanks for that!
