    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."
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    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
