A man goes into a pet store looking for a monkey. “I don’t want
any old monkey,” he says to the store owner, “I want one that
can do something special.”

The store owner points towards three identical looking monkeys in
politically-correct, animal-friendly natural mini-habitats.

“The one on the left costs $500,” says the store owner.

“Why so much?” asks the customer.

“Because it can program in C,” answers the store owner.

The customer inquires about the next monkey and is
told, “That one costs $1500, because it knows Visual C++ and
Object-Relational technology.”

The startled man then asks about the third monkey. “That one costs
$3000,” answers the store owner.

“3000 dollars!!” exclaims the man. “What can that one do?”

The owner replies, “To be honest, I’ve never seen it do a single
thing, but it calls itself a Consultant.”
