God Is Good All The Time!!

The Republican Fisherman

Liz, Addy, and myself just got home a little bit ago. I got to see my wife in action...she is coordinating her cousin's wedding which is tomorrow night. Tonight was the rehearsal and the rehearsal dinner. It was nice. Liz is not only coordinating the wedding, but she also put together all the flowers (crosages, bouquets, etc). She has been very busy this week...that wouldn't be because she waited until the week of the wedding to do the flowers, though *sarcasm*. It is late, and I wasn't going to blog today. I had this sent to me and thought it was kinda funny. Here it is:

The Republican Fisherman

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted 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 consulted his portable GPS and replied, "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 rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."

"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"

"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."

The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat."

"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you are 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 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."
