Three PhD types go down to Mexico one night, get drunk, and wake
up in jail only to find out that they are to be executed in the morning,
though none of them can remember what they did the night before.

The first one is strapped in the electric chair and is asked if he has
any last words. He says, "I am from the Baylor school of divinity and I
believe in the almighty power of God to intervene on behalf of the
innocent." They throw the switch and nothing happens, so they figure
God must not want this guy to die and they let him go.

The second one is strapped in and gives his last words, "I am from
Harvard Law School and I believe in the power of justice to intervene
on the part of the innocent." They throw the switch and again nothing
happens. They figure that the law is on this guy's side, so they let him go too.

The last one is strapped in and says, "Well, I'm a 'Ramblin' Wreck from
Georgia Tech and a helluva an Engineer', and I'll tell you right now you ain't
electrocuten' nobody if you don't connect them two wires.

And who says EEs ain't smart??
