Famous Last Words
Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and George W.
Bush were set to face a firing squad in a small Central American country. Bill
Clinton was the first one placed against the wall and just before the order was
given he yelled out, "Earthquake!" The firing squad fell into a panic
and Bill jumped over the wall and escaped in the confusion.
Al Gore was the second one placed
against the wall. The squad was reassembled and Al pondered what he had just
witnessed. Again before the order was given Al yelled out, "Tornado!"
Again the squad fell apart and Al slipped over the wall.
The last person, George W. Bush, was
placed against the wall. He was thinking, "I see the pattern here, just
scream out something about a disaster and hop over the wall." He
confidently refused the blindfold as the firing squad was reassembled. As the
rifles were raised in his direction he grinned from ear to ear and yelled, "Fire!"
