There are 2 kinds of people in this world:
Those who divide the world into 2 kinds of people, and those who don't.

There are 11 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary, those who don't and those who understand just enough to get this joke!

-

A man goes into a bar and sees a guy sitting with a dog.
"Does your dog bite?" he asks.
"No," the guy replies.
So the man goes to pet the dog and is bitten.
"Ow!" he cries, "I thought you said your dog doesn't bite!"
"Mine doesn't," the guy says, "but that's not my dog."

11 was a racehorse
22 was 12
111 race
and 22112.

(hmm, decided to leave out the spaces, so it's a joke and a riddle perhaps.)

Last week I installed a skylight in my apartment. The people above me are furious.

A public domain anecdote

The Housekeeper's Weekly tells how a boy was led astray by a misunderstood title.
He was about 8 years old and was looking over the book shelves for something to read. A volume bound in red attracted him. It was Pope's "Essay on Man."
He read it for a few minutes and then threw it down.
"It may be easy on man," he said, "but it's hard on a boy."
