a good joke for today

[NuckinFutz]

A lobbyist, on her way home from work in Washington,
D.C., came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to
herself, "Wow, this seems worse than usual." She
noticed a police officer walking between the lines of
stopped cars, so she rolled down her window and asked, "Officer,
what's the hold-up?"

The officer replied, "The President is depressed, so he
stopped his motorcade and is threatening to douse himself in
gasoline and set himself on fire. He says no one
believes his stories about why we went to war in Iraq,
or the connection between Saddam and al-Qa'ida, or
that his tax cuts will help anyone except his wealthy
friends; the press called him on the lie about Iraq
trying to buy uranium from Niger, and now Campbell
Brown is threatening to sue him for a sexual innuendo
he made at a recent press conference. So we're taking
up a collection for him."

The lobbyist asks, "How much have you got so far?"
The officer replies, "About 14 gallons, but a lot of
folks are still siphoning."**

3. A great old joke

The first time I heard that one I laughed so hard picturing Herbert Hoover depressed, I kicked the slats right out of my crib.

4. This is a moral question for you.

It is an imaginary situation, but it is fun to decide what you would do.

The situation:

You are in Iowa, and there is a huge flood in progress. Many homes have been lost, water supplies compromised and infrastructure destroyed. You are a photographer out getting still photos for a news service, traveling alone, looking for particularly poignant scenes.

Suddenly, you stumble across a helicopter crash. It's George W. Bush and he's struggling to keep from being swept away in a raging river and you have the choice of rescuing him or getting a Pulitzer prize-winning photograph of the death of the Whistle-Ass.

The question is:
What shutter speed would you use?
