The Montana Cowboy

[kirk and Jenny 0]

A Montana cowboy was overseeing his herd in a remote

mountainous pasture when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced

out of a dust cloud towards him. The driver, a young man in

a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and YSL 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 Cingular RAZR V3 cell phone,

and 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 processing 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 database through an ODBC connected Excel

spreadsheet with 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 turns to the cowboy and says,

"You have exactly 1,586 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.

Then 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 Congressman for the U. S. Government", 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. You

tried to show me how much smarter than me you are; and you

don't know a thing about cows... this is a herd of sheep.

Now give me back my dog.
