This reminds me of the only mathematical joke I know, the oft-misquoted:
There are only 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary notation, and those who don't.

    A mathematician named `Hall` had dodecahedronal balls;
    The square of their weight,
    times his pecker's plus eight,
    is his phone number, give him a call.
