It Doesn't Matter How Smart You Are..... It Doesn't Matter How Smart You Are..... rondiri is always posting really good jokes. I saw this one and thought it might get a few laughs.... Einstein met an Indian man on a flight. It was a long flight that was supposed to take about 20 hrs to reach its destination. In the plane Einstein was seated next to an Indian man who was about to have a nap. The flight was very long so naturally Einstein was very bored. As restless as Einstein's mind was, he asked the Indian guy; "Let's play a game. I'll ask you one question, if you can't answer, you have to pay me $5. However, if you ask me a question and I, with my years of knowledge and wisdom, can't answer, then I'll pay you $500." The Indian guy really wanted a nap but agreed to play a couple of round just so he could get some sleep. Einstein asked, "What's the distance from the Moon to Pluto?". The Indian guy was dumbstruck. He chuckled and then pulled out $5 and gave it to Einstein. As it was his turn now, the Indian man asked, "Name an animal, that goes up on a mountain with 4 legs and comes back with 3." Einstein was devastated and baffled. Even with all his expertise, wisdom and knowledge, he just could not answer that question. Einstein, infuriated, pulled out $500 from his wallet and gave it to the Indian man. Einstein was desperate to know the answer. "So now my question to you, tell me, what's the name of the animal that goes up on a mountain with 4 legs and comes back with 3?" The Indian man reached in his pocket and gave $5 to Einstein and went back to sleep. |

That isn't completely correct. I've known med students that had degrees,expertise in numerous fields..philosophy, engineering,biology, chemistry etc Some could even count cards with 3 decks used at the same time But their way of thinking is flawed..it's very linear To them..a+b=c....so you must have x..without even considering the possibility of a D or E or F.. They were so good at memorizing and spitting out facts... That the Pennsylvania medical " bar" had to change the 2nd year test. The medical schools were cranking out robots and not critical thinkers.. Nobody wanted to be Dr. House and play the " what if" game.. Instead they want to " turn tables" and get patients in and out of their office as quick as possible. You are throwing up?,,,we put you on seasick pills...we don't know what's going on..throws up hands..and you spend 3 days in the hospital for observation..which couldn't find the solution. Now someone like myself isn't as smart as a doctor.. But I think outside the box...the first thing I'd ask is Do you smoke w@ed... Cause that is exactly what happened to my roommate and is a lesser known side effect of Mary jane.. Yes it cause you to non stop vomiting People can be brilliant in one fashion But so ignorant in others

it is a nice story. knowledged and being smart, or intelligent, or even worst,  , intellectual, are all parts of how you learned to think, linair or circulair, holistic thinking.... or outside the box.... There are more ways to Learn, then what they stuff your brain with on uni/ any kind of school...
