 88 K on a P. 27 V of H K. 24 H in a D. Do you remember those kinds of puzzles where you have to figure out what
is being referred to? The first one is 88 Keys on a Piano, the second 27 Varieties of Heinz Ketchup, and the
last is 24 Hours in a Day. If you like tackling such challenges as associating familiar quantities with their
corresponding subjects, then you'll want to check out the list I
created below that all have science and engineering themes. If this proves to be popular, I'll do another -
hopefully including suggestions from y'all. Good luck. The answers are at the bottom of the page. - 88

 These engineering and science tech-centric
jokes, song parodies, anecdotes and assorted humor have been collected from friends
and websites across the Internet. I check back occasionally for new fodder, but
it seems all the old content is reappearing all over (like this is). The humor is
light-hearted and clean and sometimes slightly assaultive to the easily-offended,
so you are forewarned. It is all workplace-safe.
