SVEN & OLE

Sven and Ole, Two Minnesota engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, lookingup. A woman walks by asks what they were doing.
"Ve're supposed to find da height of dis flagpole, "said Sven, "but vedon't haff a ladder."

The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a couple of bolts, andlaid the pole down on the ground. Then she took a tape measure from her pocketbook, took a measurement, announced, "Twenty one feet,six inches,"
and walked away.

Ole shook his head and laughed. "Ain't dat just like a voman! Ve ask ferda height and she gives us da length!"

Sven and Ole have since quit their engineering jobs and are currently serving in the United States Senate.
