juldeaSo there were these four guys taking Organic Chemistry. They were doing well on all the quizzes, midterms and labs, etc., and they each had an "A" going into finals week. These four friends were so confident that the weekend before finals, they decided to go down to Dallas and party with some friends there. They had a great time, but after all the hearty partying, they slept all day Sunday and didn't make it back to Norman until early Monday morning - when their final was taking place. Rather than take the final then on no sleep and with hangovers, they decided to find their professor and explain to him why they missed it.
They explained that they had gone to Dallas for the weekend with the plan to come back in time to study, but, unfortunately, they had a flat tire on the way back, didn't have a spare, and couldn't get help for a long time. As a result, they missed the final.
The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day. The guys were elated and relieved.
They all studied that night and went in the next day to take the exam. The professor placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet, then left the rooms. They each looked at the first problem, worth five points. It was something simple about free radical formation. "Cool," they thought at the same time, each one in his separate room, "this is going to be easy."
Each finished the problem and then turned the page.
On the second page was written, "For 95 points: Which tire?"
This joke care of my grandma, possibly the best email forward she's ever sent me. Especially since all of the fwd: spam was trimmed.
