I got this in an email this morning:
A cowboy was herding his cows in a remote pasture when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced out of a
dust cloud towards him.
The driver, a young man in a YSL suit, Fendi shoes, Bvlgari sunglasses & an Armani tie leans out the window
and asks the cowboy, "If I tell you exactly how many cows and calves you have in your herd, will you give me a calf?"
The cowboy looks at the man, obviously a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing herd and calmly answers, "
Sure. Why not?"
The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell notebook computer, connects it to his AT &T cell phone, surfs to a NASA
page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite navigation system to get an exact fix on his location which
he then feeds to another NASA satellite that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo. The young man then
opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop and exports it to an image process to a facility in Hamburg, Germany.
Within seconds, he receives an email on his Palm Pilot that the image has been processed and the data stored. He
then accesses a MS-SQL data base through an ODBC connected Excel spreadsheet with hundreds of complex. He
uploads all of this data via an email on his Blackberry and , after a few minutes, receives a response.
Finally, he prints out a full-color, 150-page report on his hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet printer and finally turn to
the cowboy and says, "You have exactly 1686 cows and calves."
"That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of my calves," says the cowboy.
He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on amused as the young man stuffs it into the
trunk of his car.
The the cowboy says to the young man, "Hey, if I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back
my calf?" The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, "Okay, why not?"
"You're a consultant to the Kerry campaign." says the cowboy.
"Wow! That's correct," says the yuppie, "but how did you guess that?"
"No guessing required." answered the cowboy. "You showed up here even though nobody called you; you want to get
paid for an answer I already knew, to a question I never asked; and you don't know anything about my business........"
"Now give me back my dog!" |
