A friend of mine is working on his doctorate in number theory, it's a nice though that there are people living out their lives thinking about this kind of thing.


EDIT - Speaking of numbers, four thousand plus and a palindrome!

and c is equal to 299,792,458 meters per second

Ah-ha! I got it 1+3=299,792,458!

I rule at math...

The first thing that came to my mind was "This has to be some kind of trick question". Upon reading what it was we were supposed to be thinking I thought "This has to be some kind of trick answer", as the brief moment it took me to read the question was one of the few times I wasn't thinking about sex.

However, if we accept the premise that 1+2=3 in a reproductive sense, and ignoring the fact that that is totally ridiculous, I've got some more. See if you can figure out what they are:DL

1) 1 / 2 = 2

2) 1+2 = 2

3) 1+0 = 1

4) 1+1 = 1

5) 1+7 = 21

6) 1+2 = 0

I'll post the answers later.

What do you mean ridiculous?!

1= woman
2= man
3= baby

woman + man = baby

Geez.

What if it was twins? 1+2+3+3 = 9? The equation only really works with one situation.:DL

Umm, I didn't think sex. :(

I thought: why are there quote marks around the numbers?

Funny, that was my first thought, too.

I would only look at 1+2=3 from sexual standpoint if 1=me, 2=two hot chicks.
That way you can figure out that 3=three----! :haha::haha::haha:

Well I personally don't have pics of them mating but I was told the story by the zoo's head elephant keeper. :O:

I happened to visit there when the baby who resulted from the incident was just a few months old. The zoo was in the process of expanding and improving the elephant exhibit at the time, and because of some work being done to the exterior that day, the momma and baby had been moved for a couple of hours into a backup interior holding/viewing area. However that area was not really designed for elephants, in that - although it was plenty large enough to accomodate them and let them move around freely - the distance between the open bars of the pens and the visitor walkway was small enough that a visitor could reach out and touch an elephant's trunk if the elephant decided to cooperate by extending it through the bars in that direction. Which they were more than happy to do, especially if you had food. And of course there was nothing to stop less thoughtful visitors from tossing food or other objects right into the pen.

Consequently, to avoid those possibilities, the head elephant dude was on station there to monitor both elephant and human behavior and make sure nothing untoward happened. Which meant that anybody who cared to listen got to hear the story of how little baby Ganesh (the first elephant-type creature born in Ohio since the days of the woolly mammoths) was conceived.

Apparently when the zoo acquired the female that was to be his mother, they believed that any possible breeding program was a good ways off since neither she nor the prospective father were considered old enough to have romance on their minds, lol. So they didn't see any reason to keep them apart and let them roam their exterior habitat together.

Then one day, the keeper said, he was working around the corner in the interior part of the exhibit when a lady came in and said, "Are you the elephant keeper?" and he said, "Yes, can I help you?" And she said, "I think you better come outside and see this" and he asked why and she said, "Because I think your gentleman elephant is making love to your lady elephant out here in the yard." And sure enough...

They didn't think the momma was mature enough to conceive or carry to term either but she did both. And, since she was raised by humans, they didn't know if she'd know how to raise a baby of her own. But she did just fine.

The funniest thing about it was that this keeper was clearly so proud and so in love with this li'l critter that I half expected him to reach into his back pocket for his wallet pull out a big packet of baby photos just like a proud first-time grampa.

Oh and BTW bebby elephants are Teh Cute.
