My brother emails me a lot of stuff - stuff that I usually just delete.But once in a while he sends me something that I think is worth sending along to others.This is one of those things.We are both Republicans so you might imagine the direction this is going to take, but it’s funny so I hope you like it no matter which party you belong to.Enjoy -
The Deer Hunter
A man in a hot air balloon hunting deer realized he was lost (Drew). He lowered his altitude and spotted a man in a bass boat below. He 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 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.'
He rolled his eyes and said, 'You must be a Republican.'
'I am,' replied the bass fisherman. 'How did you know?'
'Well,' answered Drew, '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 have not been much help to me. '
The man smiled and responded, 'You must be a Democrat.'
'I am,' replied Drew. 'How did you know?'
'Well,' said the bass fisherman, '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 had no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault.'
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
