is to know. Just name someone, anyone, and I know them."
Tired of his boasting, his boss called his bluff, "OK, Dave, how about
Tom Cruise?"
"No dramas boss, Tom and I are old friends, and I can prove it."
So Dave and his boss fly out to Hollywood and knock on Tom Cruise's
door and Tom Cruise shouts, "Dave! What's happening? Great to see you!
Come on in for a beer! Although impressed, Dave's boss is still
sceptical. After they leave Cruise's house, he tells Dave that he
thinks him knowing Cruise was just lucky.
"No, no, just name anyone else," Dave says.
"President Bush," his boss quickly retorts.
"Yup," Dave says, "Old buddies, let's fly out to Washington." And off
they go. At the White House, Bush spots Dave on the tour and motions
him and his boss over, saying, "Dave, 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
Dave, who again implores him to name anyone else.
"The Pope," his boss replies."
"Sure!" says Dave. "I've known the Pope for years." So off they fly to
Rome.
Dave and his boss are assembled with the masses at the Vatican when
Dave 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."
He disappears into the crowd headed towards the Vatican. Sure enough,
half an hour later Dave emerges with the Pope on the balcony, but by
the time Dave returns, he finds that his boss has had a heart attack
and is surrounded by paramedics.
Making his way to his boss' side, Dave asks him, "What happened?"
His boss looks up and says,t was the final straw - you and the Pope
came out on the balcony and the man next to me said,
"Who the f***'s that on the balcony with Dave?"
Thats enough for tonight
