God was fed up. In a crash of thunder he yanked up to heaven three influential men: Bill Clinton, Boris Yeltsin and Bill Gates.
'The human race is a complete disappointment,' God boomed. 'You each have one week to prepare your followers for the end of the world.'
With another crash of thunder they found themselves back on earth.
Clinton immediately called his cabinet. 'I have good news and bad news,' he announced grimly. 'The good news is that there is a God. The bad news is, he's really mad and plans to end the world in a week.'
In Russia, Yeltsin announced to parliament, 'Comrades, I have bad news and worse news. The bad news is that we were wrong; there is a God after all. The worse news is he's mad and is going to end the world in a week.'
Meanwhile, Bill Gates called a meeting of his top engineers. 'I have good news and better news. The good news is that God considers me one of the three most influential men on earth,' he beamed. 'The better news is we don't have to fix Windows '98.'
