Jokes and Philosophy

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=10158510

This is an interview with the authors of the book "Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar... Understanding Philosophy Through Jokes." It's a funny book and very spot on with alot of the philosophy we've been talking about, like metaphysics: A seeker has heard the wisest guru in all of India lives atop India's highest mountain, so the seeker tracks over a hill in Delhi until he reaches the fabled mountain. It's incredibly steep, and more than once, he slips and falls. By the time he reaches the top, he's full of cuts and bruises. But there's the guru, sitting cross-legged in front of his cave.
Oh, wise guru, the seeker says, I have come to ask you what the secret of life is. Ah, yes, the secret of life, the guru says. The secret of life is a teacup. A teacup? I came all the way up here to find the meaning of life and you tell me it's a teacup? The guru shrugs, so maybe it isn't a teacup.

P1: Philosophy can be hard to understand.
P2: Jokes make understanding easier.
C: We should tell more philosophy jokes.

Inductive, soung, and cogent. And we totally should tell more jokes.
