I love when textbooks are randomly whimsical. It adds a nice dash of unexpected humor to my homeworking.

For instance, my physics textbook offers this:

"Evaluating these integrals for most common objects (such as a television set or a moose) would be difficult, so here we consider only uniform objects."

Yes, because meese (mooses?) are so common.

As a physicist, I wholeheartedly approve of integrating moose whenever possible.

I am ALL for integrating moose. As a chemist who finds physics occasionally very frustrating, it certainly adds much appreciated spice :D

LOL. Well they are where I live, but... =P

Hee! So you would find it useful to frequently integrate moose? Oh Canadians.

Heehee! Yes! Straight to the source! Random bouts of randomosity are MUCH appreciated to beleaguered college students!

LMAO, that's awesome. Yeah, there are a few jewels scattered in some of my textbooks, too. It makes having to read some of that boring shit so much more tolerable.

MOOSE? LD

Lol, I was actually reading a book about Black Holes yesterday (yes, I am a big damn geek) and kept making Stargate references in my head. :D
