Swiss-Jokes

Welcome to Swiss-Jokes, but first a caveat: this is not a page that provides example of Swiss humor (yes it does exist! (and so does the Swiss merchant navy (even if people do not believe it!))) but rather jokes, aphorisms and anecdotes from the fields of biology, biochemistry and computer sciences. Each time you click on the button at the bottom of this page, you will randomly access one of the numerous high quality (that's why it's Swiss!) jokes stored in our file.
