Some of y'all should come visit Austin for the O'Henry "Pun Off." It is hilarious and some of the talent is crazy. Funny, sometimes cringingly so, and definitely only some types of people appreciate a good pun and it can get painful at times.

Geology puns are schisty.
It must be tuff to be so igneous.

Geologists make the bed rock.   ;D

I repeat my comment. I'd rather have you punsters visit than the hipsters, Californians moving in (apologies to the good ones here on BG,) and Obama who tie up my traffic even worse that it was. Come to the Pun-Off, there might even be a geology sub-group! One never knows which subject will be pulled out.

This is starting to get soiled.

So I was discussing cleavage with a female
colleague when the topic of intrusive dikes comes up...  .

I'm a bit tarn on the subject.

...She said that the dikes she knew of were often associated with thrusting
movements in a bed.

I said that I usually didn't associate dikes with any sort of thrusting, but then you never know what can happen
when a dike was in an orogenous zone.   :o


A geologist is the only person who can can talk to a woman and use the
words "dike" "thrust" "bed" "orogeny" "cleavage" and "subduction" in the
same sentence without facing a civil suit.

Hoodoo you think you are? I can't beat that tale.  I'm putting my tailings between my legs and going home. :)

Geology has some of the most potent material!

Looks like everyone has lost their Apatite for the geology puns. :(
