>
> With that, the pilot threw open the door and jumped from the plane.

> Michael Jordan was on his feet in a flash.
>
> "Gentlemen," he said, "I am the world's greatest athlete. The world

> With these words, he grabbed one of the remaining parachutes, and

> Bill Gates rose and said, "Gentlemen, I am the world's smartest man.
> The world needs smart men. I think the world's smartest man should

>
> He grabbed one, and out he jumped.

> The Dalai Lama and the hippie looked at one another. Finally, the
> Dalai Lama spoke.
>
> "My son," he said, "I have lived a satisfying life and have known the
> bliss of True Enlightenment. You have your life ahead of you; you take
> a parachute, and I will go down with the plane."
>
> The hippie smiled slowly and said, "Hey, don't worry, pop.
> The world's smartest man just jumped out wearing my backpack."
