<Humor> Hunting Season

[Matt Wehland <mwehland@webtripper.com>]

  A truck driver, hauling a tractor-trailer load of computers, stops
  for a beer. As he approaches the bar, he sees a big sign on the door
  that says, "NERDS NOT ALLOWED - ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!"
  He enters andsits down.
  The bartender comes over to him, sniffs, and says that he smells kind
  of nerdy. He then asks him what he does for a living. The truck driver
  explains to him that he drives a truck, and the smell is just from the
  computers he is hauling. The bartender serves him a beer and says,
  "OK, truck drivers aren't nerds."
  As he is sipping his beer, a skinny guy walks in wearing a pair of
  glasses with tape around the middle, a pocket protector with twelve
  kinds of pens and pencils, and a belt that is at least a foot too long.
  The bartender, without saying a word, pulls out a shotgun and blows the
  guy away. The truck driver asks him why he did that. The bartender
  replied, "Don't worry. The Nerds are in season because they are
  overpopulating Silicon Valley. You don't even need a license."
  So the truck driver finishes his beer, gets back in his truck, and
  heads for the freeway. Suddenly, he veers to avoid an accident, and
  the load shifts. The back door breaks open and computers spill
  out all over the road. He jumps out and sees a crowd already forming,
  snatching up all of the computers. The scavengers are comprised of
  engineers, accountants and programmers. Each of them wearing the
  nerdiest clothes he has ever seen.
  He can't let them steal his whole load. So remembering what happened
  in the bar, he pulls out his gun and starts blasting away, killing
  several of them instantly. A highway patrol officer comes zooming up
  and jumps out of the car screaming at him to stop.
  The truck driver said, "What's wrong? I thought nerds were in season."
  "Well, sure," says the patrolman, "But you can't bait 'em!"
