Bubba and Ray


( Arkansas mechanical engineers)



Were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up.




A woman walked by and asked what they were doing.

'We're supposed to find the height of the flagpole,' said Bubba,

'but we don't have a ladder.'

The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a few bolts,

And laid the pole down. Then she took a tape measure from her

Pocket, took a measurement, announced, 'Eighteen feet, six inches,'

And walked away.

Ray shook his head and laughed. 'Ain't that just like a woman!

We ask for the height and she gives us the length!'



Bubba and Ray are currently working for the government....

..... And helping to design the "stimulus package."
