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 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.”
….Thanks Mark for these.
This is great..

Crabs aren’t too picky but I’d venture they’d gag at the prospects of that for dinner.
The nation has selective amnesia, sometimes it’s good to be reminded. Thanks Mark, Thanks WT.

I got this as an E-mail this morning. The Nightmare!!!
Dear Friends,
Last night I had the strangest dream. It was so real, so life-like and so vivid I woke up in a cold sweat. Let me describe it to you briefly…
1. Hillary wins the Democratic Party nomination for President of the United States.
2. Naturally, she wants to choose as her running mate someone with a lot of knowledge and experience in government and foreign affairs, someone who is a seasoned campaigner who could bring a lot of strength to the ticket. Who better than Bill, her husband?!!!
3. Hill and Bill go on to win the election in November and the Democrats maintain control of the House and the Senate.
4. Hillary is sworn in as President on January 20, 2009. The next day, after all the inauguration parties are over, she calls a press conference to make an announcement: she is resigning as President!!! Bill, as the Vice President, immediately becomes President!!! This is all perfectly legal under the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, for it states that ‘no person may be elected as president more than twice.’ Bill is not being elected for a third term but is merely serving out the remainder of Hillary’s term—all 4 years of it.
5. But wait! There’s more! The following day Bill calls a press conference to make an announcement. He has chosen someone to fill the now-vacant office of Vice President. Guess who he picks? Why, Hillary, of course!!! And she would still be able to run for president again!!!
Let’s get Chappaquiddick Ted a bus so that he can take all the Democratic candidates, leadership, and John Murtha types home.
Jack — That’s sick. I will have nightmares for months.
Jack, that is very scary.
Oh gosh just think if legally she could pull that off, there is nothing she would not do, we know that from experience.
