Non-aviation Friday Funny

Postby Morph » Fri Oct 06, 2006 1:52 pm

Gatiep was bragging to his boss one day, "You know, I know everyone
there is to know. Just name someone, anyone, and I know them" Tired of
his boasting, his boss called his bluff, "OK, Gatiepie, how about Tom
Cruise?" Gatiep replied "Tom and I are old friends, and I can prove it."


So Gatiep and his boss fly out to Hollywood and knock on Tom Cruise's
door and Tom Cruise shouts, " Gatiepie! What's happenin?!? Great to see
you! Come on in for a beer! Although impressed, Gatiep`s boss is still
sceptical.


After they leave Cruise's house, he tells Gatiep that he thinks him
knowing Cruise was just lucky. "No, no, just name anyone else," Gatiep
says. "President Bush," his boss quickly retorts. "Yup," Gatiepsays,
"Old buddies, let's fly out to Washington."


And off they go. At the White House, Bush spots Gatiep on the tour and
motions him and his boss over, saying, " Gatiepie, what a surprise, I
was just on my way to a meeting, but you and your friend come on in and
let's have a cup of coffee first and catch up."


Well, the boss is very shaken by now but still not totally convinced.
After they leave the White House grounds he expresses his doubts to
Gatiep, who again implores him to name anyone else.


"The pope," his boss replies. "Sure!" says Gatiep. "My folks are from
Poland, and I've known the Pope a long time."


So off they fly to Rome. Gatiepie and his boss are assembled with the
masses in Vatican Square when Gatiep says, "This will never work. I
can't catch the Pope's eye among all these people. Tell you what, I know
all the guards so let me just go upstairs and I'll come out on the
balcony with the Pope."


And he disappears into the crowd headed toward the Vatican. Sure enough,
half an hour later Gatiep emerges with the Pope on the balcony but by
the time Gatiep returns, he finds that his boss has had a heart attack
and is surrounded by paramedics. Working his way to his boss' side,
Gatiep asks him, "What happened?" His boss looks up and says, "I was
doing fine until you and the Pope came out on the balcony and the man
next to me said: "Who the f is that on the balcony with Gatiepie?
