President Clinton noticed a group of boys surrounding a dog.
Concerned lest the boys were hurting the dog, he went over and
asked, "What are you doing with that dog?"

One of the boys replied, "This dog is a neighborhood stray. We all
want him, but only one of us can take him home. So we've decided
that whichever one of us can tell the biggest lie will get to keep
the dog."

Of course, the president was taken aback. "You boys shouldn't be
having a contest telling lies!" he exclaimed. He then launched into
a ten minute sermon against lying,beginning, "Don't you boys know
it's a sin to lie," and ending with, "Why, when I was your age, I
never told a lie."

There was dead silence for about a minute. Just as the president was
beginning to think he'd gotten through to them, the smallest boy
gave a deep sigh and said, "All right, give him the dog."


LMAO :D

MrAtheist,

It's sorta related to Distributed Computing in that it falls under the sub-category of Distributed Intelligence; some of our politians are intelligent, but you need to round up a whole bunch of them together for it to accomplish anything significant!! ;)

It's definitely related, as we all know Mr. Clinton's VP Al Gore created the Internet by asking Mr. Clinton to set it up, and the Internet is what we use as a communication method for distributed projects. Surely you couldn't object to a discussion about the Fathers of the Internet, could you?

MrAtheist,
I know the post has "little" to do with the Distributed computing forum, but however as I really only converse with people in this group, I thought I would share. It was funny and many did like it.
Also it was marked OT ( Off Topic ) you didn't have to read it if you didn't want to :D
