> A West Texas cowboy was herding his herd 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 AT&T 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............. Now give me back my
dog."
