Teacher Arrested At Sydney International Airport
A senior high school maths teacher was arrested today at Sydney’s Kingsford-Smith International airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a compass, a slide-rule and a calculator.
At the press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious extremist Al-Gebra movement.
He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the A.F.P. with carrying weapons of math instruction.
"Al-Gebra is a problem for us", the Attorney General said. "They derive solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values. They will often use secret code names like "X" and "Y" and refer to themselves as 'unknowns'; but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, " 'There are three sides to every triangle.' "
When asked to comment on the arrest, the Prime Minister Tony Abbott said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes."
Fellow Liberal colleagues told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent nor profound statement by the Prime Minister.
