Do you think they could have these things do the same thing for say, cleaning up your basement?

The only problem I have with a robot parking my car is, will he set the mirrors back the way I had them?

The car parkers union will probably complain about the robot taking over a human's job and not showing the same level of care and concern that a human would so then they will have to program the robot to steal change from the cup holder to make things more fair!

 Don't forget scratching the side windows. That's a valuable service.

robot bartenderA man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool he noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and asked, "Sir, what will you have?"

The man thought a moment then replied? "A martini please."

The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best martini the man had ever had.

The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?"

The man answered "Oh, about 164."

The robot then proceeded to discuss the 'theory of relativity', inter-stellar space travel',the latest medical breakthroughs, etc...

The man was most impressed. He left the bar but thought he would try a different tact. He returned and took a seat. Again the robot clicked and asked what he would have? "A martini please."

Again it was superb. The robot again asked "What is your IQ sir?"

This time the man answered , "Oh about 100". So the robot started discussing NASCAR racing, the latest basketball scores, and what to expect the Dodgers to do this week end.

The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a stool.... Again a martini, and the question, "What is your IQ?"

This time the man drawled out " Uh..... bout 50".

The robot clicked then leaned close and very slowly asked,

"A-r-e...

y-o-u-r...

p-e-o-p-l-e...

g-o-i-n-g...

t-o...

n-o-m-i-n-a-t-e...

H-i-l-l-a-r-y-?????
