Flying Blonde

"Nervous Blonde"

A fellow computer programmer for a consulting
group had designed some software for one of
our largest accounts. He asked my help in
putting it into operation.

At first, he handled most of the work. Eventually,
though, he asked me to help with the last phase
of the training. When I sat down with one woman
and told her I would be showing her how to make
changes to the files, she sighed with relief. "I'm
so glad you're teaching me instead of him."

Surprised, I said that my colleague was far more
experienced than I was.

"Yes," she said, "but I feel much more comfortable
with you. I get nervous around really smart people."

"Flying Blonde"

A guy gets on a plane and finds himself seated next
to a cute blonde. He immediately turns to her and
makes his move.

"You know," he says, "I've heard that flights will go
quicker if you strike up a conversation with your
fellow passenger. So let's talk."

The blonde, who had just opened her book, closes
it slowly and says to the guy, "What would you like
to discuss?"

"Oh, I don't know," says the guy. "How about nuclear
power?"

"OK," says the blonde. "That could be an interesting
topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a
cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff--grass. Yet the
deer excretes little pellets, the cow turns out a flat patty,
and the horse produces muffins of dried poop. Why do
you suppose that is?"

The guy is dumbfounded. Finally he replies, "I haven't
the slightest idea."

"So tell me," says the blonde, "How is it that you feel
qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't
know crap?
