<DIV style="RIGHT: auto" dir=ltr>Two friends, one liberal and one conservative, were fishing in the early evening on a nearby river. After a couple of hours with neither one getting so much as a nibble, the liberal looked across the river and commented that the fish were probably plentiful over there. His conservative friend agreed, but noted that there was no bridge in sight and the river was too wide and swift to try to cross any other way. The liberal, after a moment, said he had an idea, telling his friend that "hey, why don't I shine my flashlight across to the other side and you could walk across along the beam and tell me how it looks". After thinking it over for a minute, the conservative said "You must really think I'm stupid. I'd get half way across the river, and you'd turn the flashlight off". What does this have to do with any of this? Nothing, and when I was working in radio in Great Falls it was a
North Dakota joke.....<BR><BR>
