TBM Google Joke

Made this one up as I was looking at the Google prompt:


St. Peter and Dr. Shades were standing around the Google portal two hundred years from now, when a group of TBM guys walk by. They all said hello and then Droopy asks, "What do all those colors in the Google sign stand for anyway?".

Bcspace interrupts and said, "Let me guess, the blues in the G's are for Democrats, the reds in the O and E are for Republicans, the gold O is for goodness and the green L is for wealth".

Droopy then exclaims, "Hey, that's neat!", "We get four out of six".

St. Peter shakes his head yes and the group of TBM's resume their discussion and mosey on down the path.

When they were out of sight, Dr. Shades asks St Peter why he told a fib. St. Peter replied, "The answer made them feel better and besides, Bcspace got it right and Droopy was only off by one".

If I recall correctly back in the 80's, the Democrats were represented by red colored states. I'll bet they switched to avoid the obvious and very apt and accurate Cold War comparison to the Reds (Communists).
