“A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He lowered his altitude and spotted a woman in a boat below. He shouted to her, ‘Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet her an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.’ The woman consulted her 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.’
The man rolled his eyes and said, ‘You must be a Democrat.’
‘I am,’ replied the woman. ‘How did you know?’
‘Well,’ answered the balloonist, ‘everything you have 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 woman smiled and said, ‘You must be a Republican.’
‘I am,’ replied the balloonist. ‘How did you know?’
‘Well,’ said the woman, ‘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 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, it’s my fault.’”
