Exactly, when you can vote your own pay raise, you know you can do anything you want without any reprocussions. It's amazing.:furious3:

We should replace them with cheap immigrant labor.

Here's a slightly newer one:


>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 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 wich 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...
>
>Now give me back my dog."

Hehe, that was pure brilliance.

I already knew Kurki's joke in a differing form (it was about a blond with painted hair), but it's good to be reminded :laugh4:
