Bill Gates, Andy Grove, and Jerry Sanders (CEOs of MicroSoft,
Intel, and AMD), were in a high-powered business meeting. During
the serious, tense discussions, a beeping noise suddenly is
emitted from where Bill is sitting. Bill says, "Oh, that's
my emergency beeper. Gentlemen, excuse me, I really need to take
this call." So Bill lifts his wristwatch to his ear and
begins talking into the end of his tie. After completing this
call, he notices the others are staring at him. Bill explains,
"Oh, this is my new emergency communication system. I have
an earpiece built into my watch and a microphone sewn into the
end of my tie. That way, I can a take a call anywhere." The
others nod, and the meeting continues.
Five minutes later, the discussion is again interrupted when Andy
starts beeping. He also states, "Oh, that is my emergency
beeper. Excuse me, gentlemen, this must be an important
call." So Andy taps his earlobe and begins talking into thin
air. When he completes his call, he notices the others staring at
him and explains, "I also have an emergency communication
system. But my earpiece is actually implanted in my earlobe, and
the microphone is actually embedded in this fake tooth. Isn't
that neat?" The others nod, and the meeting continues.
Five minutes later, the discussion is again interrupted when
Jerry emits a thunderous fart. He looks up at the others staring
at him and says, "Uhh, somebody get me a piece of paper...
I'm receiving a fax."
