    THIS IS A KEEPER!

    A crowded United Airlines flight was cancelled. A single agent was
    re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travellers.

    Suddenly, an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his
    ticket on the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it has
    to be FIRST CLASS."

    The agent replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you,
    but I've got to help these folks first; and then I'm sure we'll be able
    to work something out."

    The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that
    the passengers behind him could hear, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?"

    Without hesitating, the agent smiled and grabbed her public address
    microphone. "May I have your attention, please?", she began, her voice
    heard clearly throughout the terminal. "We have a passenger here at Gate
    14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him with his
    identity, please come to Gate 14".

    With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically,
    the man glared at the United Airlines agent, gritted his teeth, and
    said, "F*** You!"

    Without flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry sir,
    you'll have to get in line for that, too!"

    Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain. :-D

    It's why I commandeered my very own newsgroup, 'alt.computer.workshop'.

    You may join me there if you wish, especially if you know a bit about
