A senior couple returned to a Corvette dealership where the salesman has just sold the car they had been interested in to a beautiful, leggy, busty blonde in a mini skirt and a halter top.
The old man was visibly upset. He spoke to the salesman sharply, "Young man, I thought you said you would hold that car till we raised the $85,000 asking price. Yet I just overheard you closed the deal for $72,000 to the lovely young lady there. And if I remember right, you had insisted there was no way you could discount this model."
The salesman took a deep breath, cleared his throat and reached for a large glass of water. "Well, what can I tell you? She had the cash ready, didn't need any financing help, and, Sir, just look at her, how could I resist?" replied the grinning salesman sheepishly.
Just then the young woman approached the senior couple and gave the car keys to the old man.
"There you go," she said. "I told you I could get that idiot to lower the price. See you later Dad, Happy Father's day."
Thanks,I needed that.
Bud looks at the man, who obviously is 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 Apple iPhone, and surfs to a NASA page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite 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 Apple iPad® that the image has been processed and the data stored. He then accesses an MS-SQL® database through an ODBC connected Excel® spreadsheet with email on his Galaxy S5® 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, turns to the cowboy and says, "You have exactly 1,586 animals."
"That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of my calves," says Bud
He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on with amusement as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car.
Then Bud 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 Bud.
"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 used millions of dollars worth of equipment trying to show me how much smarter than me you are; and you don't know sh*t about how working people make a living - or about cows, for that matter. This is a herd of sheep” “Now give me back my dog.” AND THAT FOLKS IS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS
Luv ya Sod....Sac
Well, I’ll know where that story came from when I get stuck behind a Corvette going 50 miles per hour on the Interstate.
It’s mutual Sac:)
Just be sure to wave when you pass it;)
Oh, so appropriate. Good post.
Bttt
Isn't that the truth?
It's like owners of fast cars know they're getting extra scrutiny by the cops, they always drive well under the speed limit, clogging up the highway... and often they're left lane bandits to boot.
I get behind them in my truck wanting to run 10% over the limit, and they just sit there.
Those cars ought to be outlawed anyway. What does anyone need with a vehicle that can go 120 MPH? No one needs 800 HP to go to the grocery store. They ought to be banned!
This one is better lol than the original article/smile.
It is supposed to be a free country. if I want 1200 hp to “go to the grocery store”...so what? Snowflake Weenies always want to take away the fun of life. Screw’em!
“Those cars ought to be outlawed anyway. What does anyone need with a vehicle that can go 120 MPH? No one needs 800 HP to go to the grocery store. They ought to be banned!”
How about 200+MPH on public roads:
10TH ANNUAL SUN VALLEY ROAD RALLY, SATURDAY JULY 21, 2018

It is, by the way, a free country. If I want a 1,200 HP automobile it’s none of YOUR friggin’ business!
You come off like Andrew Cuomo...
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahahahaha!!!
Now you're talking!.
My post was laced with a heavy dose of sarcasm, my standard response to gun grabbers who want to ban standard size magazines. I just took the opportunity to include my preferred comparison; fast cars.
I shoot. A lot.
I drive a Mustang Mach1 and it never goes under the speed limit.
