A guy walks into a bar one day, sits down, and claims he knows everyone in
the world. The guy sitting next to him says
"I don't believe you - do you know me?"
The first guy says . . .
"Sure Tony, we met two years ago at a convention - my name is Phil - remember?"
The second guy says . . .
"Okay, I remember, but I still don't believe you know everyone"
So he asks Phil if he knows the bartender.
Phil and the bartender, of course, go way back.
The bartender confirms this.
Tony tries to think of someone Phil couldn't possibly know. So he says to Phil . . .
"Do you know Bill Clinton?"
Phil replies . . .
"Oh , Bill and I smoked dope back at Oxford together."
To prove it, he calls Bill Clinton on the President's private line.
The two have a 20 minute conversation before hanging up.
Tony is now determined to come up with someone Phil would never be able to
know. This time he says . . .
"How about the Pope?" The only way to prove this is to go to the Vatican.
Tony and Phil get on a plane and fly to the Vatican.
At the Vatican, Phil requests an audience with the Pope, and much to Tony's surprise, is immediately granted one.
Phil goes inside, and a few minutes later appears on the balcony with the Pope. They seem like old friends. Looking out into the crowd, Phil sees Tony faint. He runs down to him and asks what happened.
"Well," said Tony,
"Of course you knew me, I remember us meeting,
I could believe you knew the bartender.
and I could even believe you knew Bill Clinton.
But when I saw you and the Pope on the balcony and the guy next to me said
'Who's that guy up there on the balcony with Phil?',
that was just too much."
;D
