Enjoy! ----- Begin Included Message ----- Top 10 Ways America would be Different with Bill Gates as President ------------------------------------------------------------------- 10. Millions of taxpaying nerds would line up outside post offices around the country at 12:01 a.m, on January 1st to be the first ones to mail in their 1040 forms to pay for America '97. 9. Crime would be eliminated. Instead, criminal acts would be renamed "General Public Faults" with no one having to accept any responsibility for them. 8. Government policies that are bloated, difficult to implement and manage, and simply unable to function for many people under certain circumstances would be hailed by the national press as "forward thinking" and the "next generation" in government service. 7. No reason to worry about the leader of the western world becoming embroiled in an embarrassing sex scandal. Absolutely no reason. 6. By executive order, the letters "O" and "S" and the number "2" could *never* be the sponsors of "Sesame Street" on PBS. 5. Crisis intervention hotlines would be converted to 900 numbers with pay-by-the-minute support (major credit cards accepted) and staffed by well-meaning people who haven't got a clue. 4. SPA auditors replaced by the auditor candidates rejected by the IRS as being "too bloodthirsty" and "without compassion." 3. U.S. Treasury bonds would suddenly escalate in value and continue to grow in spite of market conditions, contrary to all known economic laws and to the bewilderment of experts. 2. Emerging democracies around the world would be systematically, surreptitiously, and relentlessly bullied into submission by unfair trading practices and then annexed by the U.S. for next to nothing. 1. "Whitewater"? Get ready for "white skin"! _____________________________________________________________________________ NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS *** *** *** This message sent on the NAGPS-OFFICERS E-mail list. *** *** All material sent or received on this E-mail list is CONFIDENTIAL. *** *** Release or publication of material circulated on this list requires *** *** consent of President of NAGPS. *** *** *** NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS * NAGPS ----- End Included Message -----
