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 00 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."
