I found this over at "Scream & Fly". It made me think of some of the people over here, so I thought some you might enjoy this joke. I'm sure some of you will not like it because it strikes a nerve - that's tough, get over it!<br /><br />A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. <br />She lowered altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. <br />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." <br />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 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 west longitude."<br /><br />She rolled her eyes and said, "You MUST be a republican."<br />"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"<br />"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have NO idea what to make of your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've been no help to me."<br /><br />The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat.<br />"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"<br />"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large amount of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect ME to solve your problem. You're in EXACTLY the same position you were before we met, but somehow now, it's MY fault."
