A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her
altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted
to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would
meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air
balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346
feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14..97 minutes north
latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude..She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."
"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is
technically correct. But I have no idea what to do with
your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much
help to me."The man smiled and responded, "You must be an Obama Democrat."
"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?""Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you
are going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of
hot air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and
you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same
position you were in before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault."- did you get this FWDd to you by my 65 year old midwestern father in law too?fooler2
