				Meeting Bill Gates
			 
			 
			
		
		
		I was in the airport VIP lounge en route to Seattle a couple of weeks ago. While in there, I noticed Bill Gates sitting comfortably in the corner, enjoying a drink. 
 
I was meeting a very important client who was also flying to  
Seattle, but she was running a little bit late.  
 
Well, being a straightforward kind of guy, I approached the  
Microsoft chairman, introduced myself, and said, "Mr. Gates,  
I wonder if you would do me a favor."  
 
"Yes?"  
 
"I'm sitting right over there," pointing to my seat at the bar,  
"and I'm waiting on a very important client. Would you be so  
kind when she arrives as to come walk by and just say, 'Hi,  
Ray,'?"  
 
"Sure."  
 
I shook his hand and thanked him and went back to my seat.  
 
About ten minutes later, my client showed up. We ordered a  
drink and started to talk business.  
 
A couple of minutes later, I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was  
Bill Gates.  
 
"Hi, Ray," he said.  
 
I replied, "Fuck off, Gates, I'm in a meeting."
