I know this is off topic and I apologize, but I thought you all might get a kick out of it.... --------------------------------------------------------------------- In a small aeroplane there were four people: the pilot, the Pope, Bill Gates and a hitchhiker. They were flying over mountains when suddenly the pilot burst through the doors to the passenger compartment and announced that there was a fuel leakage and the plane would crash in 5 minutes. "There are only three parachutes I'm afraid," he said, as he hurredly grabbed one for himself and jumped out. That left the three passengers and two parachutes. Bill Gates said, "I'm very important, and I'm the world's smartest man and I deserve to live." And with that he grabbed a pack and leaped out. "Young man," said the Pope to the hitchhiker, "I am old, I have lived my life and it was a very good one. You're still young, please take the last parachute and save yourself. My life is in the hands of God." "It's okay," said the hitchhiker. "Don't worry, we have a parachute each." "How can that be?" asked the Pope. "Well, the world's smartest man just jumped out with my backpack!" -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Hand over the code, and no one gets hurt!"
