I was in the VIP lounge last week en route to Seattle.   While in the lounge, I notice Bill Gates sitting on the chesterfield enjoying a cognac.I was meeting with a very important client who was also flying to Seattle with me but she was running a bit late.   Being a forward type of guy, I approached Mr. Gates and introduced myself.I explained to him that I was conducting some very important business and how much I would appreciate it if he could throw a quick "hello Chris" at me when I was with my client.He agreed.    Ten minutes later while I was conversing with my client, I felt a tap on my shoulder.It was Bill Gates.I turned around and looked up at him.He said, "Hi Chris, what's happening?"   To which I replied "Fuck off Gates, I'm in a meeting."
