Subject: Lost Woman A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered 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 39 feet above sea level. You're 31 degrees, 14.97 minuets north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minuets west longitude." She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a republican." "I am" replied the man. "How did you guess?" "Well," she said, "everything you said was technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me." The man smiled and answered, "You must be a democrat." "I am," she said, "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 quantity of hot air, you've 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 all my fault!"
