Boudreaux and Tibadeoaux were standing at the base of a flagpole,  looking up.
A  blonde lady walked by and asked what they were doing. \"We\'re supposed
to find the height of the flagpole,\" said Boudreaux \"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 and an announced, \"Eighteen feet, six inches,\" and walked
away.

Tibadeoaux shook his head and laughed.  \"Ain\'t that just like a dumb blonde?\"
 We ask for the height, and she gives us the length.\"

Boudreaux and Tibadeoaux are currently supervising the reconstruction of New Orleans.
