I was awoken by a fire alarm and when i got back i checked my mail and i read this, i just had to post it for all to read.
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 2346 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 a Democrat." "I am,"

replied the balloonist. "How did you know?" "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 quantity 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

in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault."
