----- Original Message ----- Subject: The Fourth Parachute! The fourth parachute An airplane was about to crash; there were 5 passengers on board but only 4 parachutes. The first passenger said, "I'm Zinedine Zidane, the world's number 1 footballer. FIFA needs me, I can't afford to die." So he took the first pack and left the plane. The second passenger, Hillary Clinton, said, "I am the wife of the former President of the United States, I am the most ambitious woman in the world, I am also a New York Senator and a potential future President." She just took the second parachute and jumped out of the plane. The third passenger, Yoweri Museveni, said, "I'm President of Uganda and I have 17 million helpless people who always look to me for guidance. Above all I'm the cleverest President in African history, and Europeans love me. Africa's people won't let me die, too". So he put on the pack next to him and jumped out of the plane. The fourth passenger, Nelson Mandela, says to the fifth passenger, a 10 year old Xhosa school boy, "I am old and have lived a fruitful life, God will decide my fate, so I'll let you have the last parachute". The boy said, "It's OK, there's a parachute left for you. Africa's cleverest President who is loved by Europeans has taken my schoolbag" Do have a pleasant and productive day. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Concerned that messages may bounce because your Hotmail account has exceeded its 2MB storage limit?
