A couple old ones:
A mathematician, a biologist and a physicist are sitting in a street
cafe watching people going in and coming out of the house on the
other side of the street. First they see two people going into the
house. Time passes. After a while they notice three persons coming
out of the house.
The physicist: "The measurement wasn't accurate."
The biologist: "They have reproduced".
The mathematician: "If now exactly one person enters the house then
it will be empty again."
An engineer, a mathematician, and a statistician go out hunting.
After a while, they spot a large stag. The engineer says, "oh oh oh!
I want to go first". But he rushes his shot and misses 3 meters to
the left. The mathematician grabs the rifle: "My turn!". But his
shot sails 3 meters to the right.
"Oooh! We got him!" shouts the statistician.
