Tom,

I can't really top DD's "You mean she didn't have any clothes on?" response to "All that was missing was [Barbara's] red bikini" and Roi's "You just have to use the pie again in another work area to make it red/white," but here's one I found (slightly edited) :


Eleven people were clinging precariously to a wildly swinging rope suspended from a crumbling outcropping on Mount Washington. Ten were VB coders, one was a VFP Solution Developer.

All eleven people struggled to climb the rope, but to no avail. The rope continued to swing wildly and was sure to break soon if something was not done to change the situation. As a group they decided that in order for the greatest chances of survival, one person in the party should let go.

All were sure that if that didn't happen the rope would break and everyone would perish. For an agonizing few moments, no one volunteered. Finally, the VFP Solution Develper spoke and gave a truly touching speech, saying he would sacrifice himself to save the lives of the others.

All ten VB coders applauded.
