Well Sulio's boss thinks for a minute and then comes up with
a name. "Tom Selleck! I bet you don't know Tom Selleck!" Sulio says "Tom Selleck!
Tom and I were in boy scouts together when we were kids!" but Sulio's boss says
"No you weren't!" then Sulio says "Yes we were!" so they fly to Hollywood and
drive up to Tom Selleck's house. Sulio knocks on the door and Tom Selleck
answers and Sulio goes "Tom!!!" and Tom goes "Sulio!" and they hug and catch up
for 30 minutes and Sulio's boss can't believe it. But then he thinks "Well that
could happen, it's just one person," so he tells Sulio and Sulio says "OK, pick
somebody else!"
This time Sulio's boss has someone in mind! "The president, Bill Clinton! You
don't know Bill Clinton!" but Sulio says "Oh yes I do! Bill and I were on debate
team together in college!" Sulio's boss says "No you weren't!" and Sulio 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 Sulio get's
close enough to catch Clinton's eye and waves "Bill!" and the President waves "Sulio!"
and after the press conference they hug and catch up for 30 minutes and Sulio'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 Sulio and Sulio says "OK, pick someone out of the world spectrum and
I know them!"
And Sulio's boss knows just who to pick so he says "The Pope! You do not know
the Pope!" and Sulio says "The Pope! The Pope BAPTIZED me!" and Sulio's boss
says "No he didn't!" and Sulio 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 Sulio 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 Sulio'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 Sulio!
Shortly afterwards, Sulio's boss passes out. Sulio 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?" Sulio's boss looks at Sulio 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 Sulio?'
that's a little more than I can take! |
