Math! It's delicious !
I generally adhere to the "traditional" classification of limericks; that is, the poem must be dirty, perverted, somehow sex-related, or simply gross to qualify as a "proper" limerick. However, every once in a while I come across a "clean" limerick that I like so much that I have to make an exception. The anonymous poem below is one of such exceptions.
A mathematician named Klein
Thought the Möbius loop was divine.
Said he: "If you glue
The edges of two,
You'll get a weird bottle like mine."
If you are not familiar with the concept Klein bottles or Möbius loops, I highly suggest utilizing Google and/or Wikipedia as they are quite weird and a lot of fun (and you can easily make yourself a Möbius loop to play with!).
For further reading: Acme Klein Bottles has a whole page of Klein bottle cartoons and limericks. It's awesome; you should check it out.
I will formally conclude this post with some spiffy Möbius loop/Klein bottle animation.

Tumblr requested I post a photo of myself. This is something I would not have done (I do like the anonymity), but tumblr asked so nicely that I am compelled to do so.
I decided to post a picture of me with a mandala that I tie-dyed.

I like to think this shot really brings out the best features in my feet.
