It's all in the perspective.....

God called Bill Clinton, Boris Yeltsin, and Bill Gates to heaven for a meeting. He said to them, "You are the three most powerful men on earth and I've called you here to give you a message. The world is going to end in seven days." With this, he sent them back to earth to spread the news.

President Clinton called a joint session of Congress, and told them:
"I've got good news and bad news. The good news is that there really is a God. The bad news is that the world is going to end in a week."

President Yeltsin called a meeting of the politburo and told them:
"I've got bad news and terrible news. The bad news is that we were wrong: there is a God. The terrible news is that the world is going to end in a week."

Bill Gates called a meeting of his top staff, and said: "I've got great news, and really great news.
The great news is that God considers me one of the three most powerful men on earth. The really great news is that we don't have to worry about delivering Windows 98!"
