something funny 2 lighten it up

after all the crying bawling etc. i thought hey how about a good joke that would get us bomping back into seder uchdilikamon-
A woman in a hot air balloon realizes
she is lost. She lowers her altitude

and spots a man fishing from a boat below.
She shouts 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 consults his portable GPS and replies,
'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.

She rolls her eyes and says,
'You must be supporting John McCain!'

'I am,' replies the man. 'How did you know?'

'Well,' answers the balloonist,
'everything you tell me is technically
correct, but I have no idea what to
do with your information, and I'm still
lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me.

The man smiles and responds, 'You must be for Obama.'

'I am,' replies the balloonist. 'How did you know?'

'Well,' says 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 now 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.'

like 2 good Jews, your joke is great but i heard a different version (Don't you hate it):

After hearing the whole altitude thingy, the guy in the balloon says: where near the Microsoft building, because all they say is correct but i have nothing to do with it, just like MS tech support.
