Bill was bragging to his boss one day, "I know just about everyone there is to know. Just name someone, anyone, and I bet I know them."
"OK, Bill, how about Tom Cruise?", said his boss. "OK, lets fly out and see him.” says Bill. They go to Hollywood and knock on Tom Cruise's door, and Tom Cruise shouts, "Bill! What's happening? Great to see you! Come on in for a beer!"
Bill's boss is still sceptical, but after visiting George Clooney, Madonna, Joe Biden, with the same result Bill's boss thinks and the says,”How about the Pope, do you know the Pope?”
"Sure!" says Bill. "I've known the Pope for years." So off they fly to Rome.
When they get there the Pope is giving an address from the balcony. Bill says he'll have a word with the guards and will come out on the balcony next to the Pope, and off he goes through the crowd. After about twenty minutes he arrives on the balcony, waves to his boss and then makes his way back down.
When he gets back to St Peter's Square he finds his boss being treated by paramedics because he has had a heart attack. He asks his boss what happened and his boss says,”It was the shock. When you appeared on the balcony with the Pope the bloke standing next to me said,”Do you know that bloke on the balcony next to Bill?”
