robots and martinis

aaugh! I am happy since I clock out of work in 15 minutes… but that means I have less than that to post this blog! I have been swamped all day with actual projects (how dare my boss actually give me work to do?! Doesn’t he know I have blogs to write?!) leaving just a few moments to spare at the end. However, I promise not try and never disappoint. So here is today’s post: a simple joke. Sounds lame I know, but I have actually saved this in my email archives for months because I find it hilarious. And since elections are in a few days, it seems fitting. A political joke for this political week. Enjoy. (And props to Shan as always; I must give credit where credit is due. If it seems like I get a fair share of my material from her… it’s because I do. She is like me only with a better wardrobe.)

A man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool he noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and asked, "Sir, what will you have?"

The man thought a moment then replied, "A martini please". The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best martini the man had ever had.

The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?"

The man answered, "Oh, about 164."

The robot then proceeded to discuss the 'theory of relativity', 'inter-steller space travel', 'the latest medical break through', etc...

The man was most impressed. He left the bar but thought he would try a different tactic. He returned and took a seat. Again the robot clicked and asked what he would have? "A Martini please.”

Again it was superb. The robot again asked, “What is your IQ sir?"

This time the man answered, "Oh about 100".

So the robot started discussing Nascar racing, the latest basketball scores, and what to expect the Dodgers to do this week end.

The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a stool.... Again a martini, and the question, "What is your IQ?"

This time the man drawled out " Uh..... bout 50".

The robot clicked, then leaned close and very slowly asked,

"S-o, y-o-u v-o-t-e-d f-o-r B-u-s-h t-h-e-n ?"
