He has gone beyond the need for design

The Master replies: “That programmer has mastered the Tao. He has gone beyond the need for design; he does not become angry when the system crashes, but accepts the universe without concern. He has gone beyond the need for documentation; he no longer cares if anyone else sees his code. He has gone beyond the need for testing; each of his programs are perfect within themselves, serene and elegant, their purpose self-evident. Truly, he has entered the mystery of the Tao.”
— Geoffrey James, “The Tao of Programming”

A German, a Pole and a Czech left camp for a hike through the woods. After being reported missing a day or two later, rangers found two bears, one a male, one a female, looking suspiciously overstuffed. They killed the female, autopsied her, and sure enough, found the German and the Pole.
“What do you think?” said the the first ranger.
“The Czech is in the male,” replied the second.
A man who could make so vile a pun would not scruple to pick a pocket.

A sad but true story
And by true, I mean completely false 
(lifted from ThisBlogSucks.com)
Little Tommy was in the 4th grade class when the teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up fireman, policeman, salesman, etc…Tommy was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him about his father.
“My father’s an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer’s really good, he’ll go out to the alley with some guy and make love with him for money.”
The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some coloring, and took little Tommy aside to ask him, “Is that really true about your father?”
” No,” said Tommy, ” He plays for the Cubs, but I was too embarrassed to say so.”

Intelligent Design
Basically, Intelligent Design is the idea that life on earth is too complex to have evolved without a guiding hand. We’re not saying it’s god, just someone with the basic skill set to create an entire universe.
