BUBBA
There was a man named Bubba and Bubba knew EVERYONE in the
whole world!!!
Once when Bubba got a new job, Bubba says to his new boss,
"Boss, I know
everyone in the whole world!" His boss doesn't believe him,
so he says "No
you do not know everyone in the whole world" but Bubba says
"Yes I do!" so
Bubba's boss says "Well prove it!" then Bubba says
"Pick someone... and I
know them!"
Well Bubba's boss thinks for a minute and then comes up with a
name. "Tom
Selleck! I bet you don't know Tom Selleck!" Bubba says
"Tom Selleck! Tom and
I were in boy scouts together when we were kids!" but
Bubba's boss says "No
you weren't!" then Bubba says "Yes we were!" so
they fly to Hollywood and
drive up to Tom Selleck's house. Bubba knocks on the door and Tom
Selleck
answers and Bubba goes "Tom!!!" and Tom goes
"Bubba!" and they hug and catch
up for 30 minutes and Bubba's boss can't believe it. But then he
thinks "Well
that could happen, it's just one person," so he tells Bubba
and Bubba says
"OK, pick somebody else!"
This time Bubba's boss has someone in mind! "The
president, Bill
Clinton! You don't know Bill Clinton!" but Bubba says
"Oh yes I do!
Bill and I were on debate team together in college!" Bubba's
boss says "No
you weren't!" and Bubba says "Yes we were!" so
they fly to
Washington and they catch up with the President at a press
conference. They
work their way through the crowd until Bubba get's close enough
to catch
Clinton's eye and waves "Bill!" and the President waves
"Bubba!" and after
the press conference they hug and catch up for 30 minutes and
Bubba's boss is
stunned-- he can't believe it. But then he thinks "Well
that's just two
people in one country-- that doesn't mean he knows everyone in
the whole
world!" so he tells Bubba and Bubba says "OK, pick
someone out of the world
spectrum and I know them!"
And Bubba's boss knows just who to pick so he says "The
Pope! You do not know
the Pope!" and Bubba says "The Pope! The Pope BAPTIZED
me!" and Bubba's boss
says "No he didn't!" and Bubba says "Yes he
did!" so they fly to Rome where
the Pope is giving Mass in front of hundreds of thousands of
people. They
work their way through the crowd-- without much luck-- so Bubba
says "Boss,
we're never gonna get there together through all these people so
I tell you
what--I'll work my way up there and when I do, I'll give you a
sign that
shows you I know the Pope!" and he leaves. Well Bubba's boss
waits and waits
and waits and just when he's about to give up, he sees the Pope
come out onto
the balcony and right there beside him is Bubba!
Shortly afterwards, Bubba's boss passes out. Bubba comes back
and
finds his boss passed out and he fans him and says "Boss!
Boss! Wake
up!" and when his boss comes to, he asks "Boss what
happened?" Bubba's boss
looks at Bubba and says "OK, I can see Tom Selleck. I can
see Bill Clinton...
hell, I can even take the Pope! But when somebody standing next
to me asks
'Who's that up there with Bubba?' That's a little more than I can
take!
