1 Absolute Zero Gravity is a great gift idea for Geeks!
This is one of those Rolling-On-The-Floor (LMAO) books that really only makes sense if you are a Geek yourself. It's a great gift and it's very lighthearted. Most of the jokes/anecdotes are short. Warning: it's adictive...
2 Tremendously Funny!
By far, the best collection of Science, math, and computer jokes I've seen. Few of the jokes are misses, and there's even an explanation for some of the most obscure gags. The section on how various professions prove numbers prime is a scream.
3 Hilarious!
This book contains side-splitting humor for anyone who appreciates science, engineering, or mathematics (or not!). The collection of light bulb jokes is amazing. Too bad it's out of print. It made a wonderful Christmas present for all my nerdy family members and friends, and some of them kept asking me for copies so they could pass it on.

Quote of the Day:


Everyone knows that dragons don't exist.  But while this simplistic

formulation may satisfy the layman, it does not suffice for the scientific
mind. The School of Higher Neantical Nillity is in fact wholly unconcerned
with what ____does exist. Indeed, the banality of existence has been
so amply demonstrated, there is no need for us to discuss it any further
here. The brilliant Cerebron, attacking the problem analytically,
discovered three distinct kinds of dragon: the mythical, the chimerical,
and the purely hypothetical. They were all, one might say, nonexistent,
but each nonexisted in an entirely different way ...
