Joke of the Day...

[CobraDan]

A shepherd was tending his flock in a remote pasture when suddenly a
brand-new Jeep Cherokee appeared out of a dust cloud, advanced toward him
and stopped. The driver, a 20-year-old young man wearing a Brioni suit,
Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and a YSL tie, leaned out of the window and
asked the shepherd, "If I can tell you exactly how many sheep you have in
your flock, will you give me one?" The shepherd looked at the young guy,
then at his peacefully grazing flock, and calmly answered, "Sure." The
young man parked his car, whipped out his notebook computer, connected it to
a cell phone, surfed to a NASA page on the Internet where he called up a GPS
satellite navigation system, scanned the area, then opened up a database and
some Excel spreadsheets with complex formulas. He finally printed out a
150-page report on his hi-tech turned around to our shepherd and said, "You
have here exactly 1,586 sheep!" "Amazing! That's correct! Like I agreed,
you can take one of my sheep," said the shepherd. He watched the young guy make a selection and bundle it into his Cherokee. When he was finished the shepherd said, "If I can tell you exactly what your political persuasion is, where you're from and who you work for, will you give me my sheep back?" "Okay, why not," answered the young man. "You're a Democrat from Palm Beach and you're working for Jesse Jackson," said the shepherd. "That's correct," said the young man. "How did you guess that?" "Easy," answered the shepherd. "Nobody called you, but you showed up here anyway. You want to be paid for the solution to a question I already knew the answer to. And, you don't know squat about my business because you just took my dog.
