Want to share a story
A woman in a hot air balloon realizes she is lost. She
lowers her altitude and spots a man fishing from a pier below. She shouts 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." Man said what? So she lowered herself down to hear better. The man consults his portable GPS and replies, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude. Still unable to hear, she lands. She rolls her eyes and says, "You must be a Republican!" "I am," replies the man. "How did you know?" "Well," answers the balloonist, "everything you tell me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me. " The man smiles and responds, "You must be a Democrat." I am," replies the balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well," says 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 quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and now 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." Before leaving she asked, "You catch anything out of this pond?" The man, named Joedog, replied, "Yes, let me show you." Oh and yes this is an entry for the big bass contest! Couldn't find the entry post and you know math is not a strong point of mine but a think this just may put me in the running. Hope you enjoyed the story.....I did.
