        I dunno if this is the reference I think it is, but if it is, isn’t it supposed to be a lawn mower not a dog house?

          If you’re thinking of the joke about the professor of deductive reasoning, I’ve always heard it as a doghouse, but I’m sure there are variations. Only 8 billion people on Earth, after all ;-)

                Hmm, now that you say that I’m either fabricating a memory or we have two parts of a whole. I seem to remember no lawn mower leading to doghouse somehow?

                I’ll have to look it up when I’m off work if I remember
