Pavlov was down at the pub with some friends, having a few beers and laughs after a tough day at work, doing research.

The publican gets a large tip from someone and rings the bell.

Pavlov immediately shoots up from his chair and stares around him. And suddenly says: "Damn, I have to go back to the lab! I forgot to feed the dogs!"

An optimist sees a glass half full. A pessimist sees it half empty. An engineer sees it twice as large as it needs to be.

A group of bats, hanging at the ceiling of a cave, discovers a single bat standing upright underneath on the floor of the cave.

Surprised by this unusual behavior, they ask this fellow: "What the heck are you doing down there?"

And the fellow shouts back: "Yoga!"

As two hungry goats tried eating movie film stock, one turned to the other.
It said, “I don’t know about you, but I thought the book was better.”

- I don't have a mustache.

Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served. When little Logan received his plate, he started eating right away.
"Logan, wait until we say our prayer," his mother reminded him.
"I don't have to," the little boy replied.
"Of course you do," his mother insisted, "we say a prayer before eating at our house."
"That's at our house," Logan explained, "but this is Grandma's house and she knows how to cook."

So, my wife and I are newlyweds, and she's a great cook, but I noticed she did something strange when preparing sausages. Just before she puts them in the skillet, she cuts off about an inch on both sides of the sausages.

After having witnessed this a couple of times, I asked her why she did this.
"Oh, that's the way my mom taught me how to prepare sausages, she always made them like this for my father and myself"

Shortly after this we went over to her parents for a visit, and she brought up the question :" Mom, why do you cut off an inch on both sides of the sausages before baking them"
"That's the way my mother, your grandmother, haught me how to prepare them, I've never know otherwise"

As end of the year approached we had a big family gathering and also my wife's grandmother attended, and towards the end of the evening my wife and I sat down next to her "Granny, we were wondering, I've been cutting of an inch of both end of sausages, because that's how mom taught me, and she said she learned it from you, why is that?"
"Oh dear, it's indeed a bit weird, but it's my mother, your great grand mother, that came up with that, she surely can give you an answer"

My wife's family is blessed with good genes, and they grow quite old, so her great grand mother is still alive, and living in a nursery home.
Because of the years end we decided to visit her and pay our respect, and with me driving, my wife, her mother and her grandmother came along, as they were a bit curious now to.

We arrived in her room, and after paying our respects and wishes for the new year, my wife's grandmother sat down next to the bed and asked " mother, we have a question, we were wondering, we've been thaught to cut of an inch of both sides of sausages before baking them, and so are my daughter and grand daughter perparing them, it's you who told me to do it, but why is that?"

Spoiler:
The 98 year old woman stared to the ceiling for a bit and then said agitated " don't tell me you're still using that undersized skillet??"

- You have lost a lot of weight.
- I am going to a gym.
- You do a lot of exercise?
- No, but with what they charge me, I hardly eat.

Two drunks are driving on the highway at 140 km / hr.
A drunkard says:
- Brother, please stop I want to get off.
The other answers:
- With pleasure, but the one who is driving is you.

After looking for Python developers with some networking knowledge, I honestly think it will be easier to find someone for that job.
