A Star from the East Named Dimitroff

PROFESSOR GEORGE Z. DIMITROFF walked into the first class of his introductory astronomy course and, with heavy accent, set the record straight: Tam not a damned Russian. I am a damned Bulgarian.

DURING ONE astronomy lecture, Dimitroff gave an arcane account of how celescope lenses were made, explaining that they were best cooled by being packed in cow manure. The technique would become so successful, he predicted, that dairy farmers would make more money by dumping the milk and marketing the manure.

WHEN DAYLIGHT SAVINGS kicked in one spring, Dimitroff walked in at the proper time for his lecture. He glared out over the audience and said, "Gentlemen, you cannot legislate the sun," and then he walked out.
