The Convention
Bill, Jim & Scott were at a convention together & were sharing a large suite
on the top of a 75-story skyscraper. After a long day of meetings, they were
shocked to hear that the elevators in their hotel were broken & they would
have to climb 75 flights of stairs to get to their room.
Bill said to Jim & Scott, "Let's break the monotony of this unpleasant task
by concentrating on something interesting. I'll tell jokes for 25 flights,
Jim can sing songs for the next 25 flights and Scott can tell sad stories
for the rest of the way."
At the 26th floor, Bill stopped telling jokes & Jim began to sing. At the
51st floor Jim stopped singing & Scott began to tell sad stories.
"I will tell my saddest story first," he said. "I left the room key in the
car..."
