Where Am I

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered altitude
and spotted a man on a sailboat 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 sextant and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon
approximately 30 feet above above sea level. You are 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 woman in the balloon, "everything you told me is
technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of 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. "But how did you know?"

"Well," said the man, "You don't know where you are or where you're going.
You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You've
made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and now 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."
