Microsoft,

I am sure everyone here has heard this before, but just in case,


A businessman is in a helicopter, flying accross a large US city towards his next meeting, when a blanket of fog comes down. Visibility is down to about 30 feet. Pretty soon, the pilot admits that he is lost, and cannot 'put the bird down anywhere'.

They are flying close by a tower block, and the businessman sees people working in an office. He calls on the pilot to hold still, whilst he pulls out his flipchart pad and writes a huge message saying " Where are we"? This he holds up to the helicopter window, and calls the pilot to move in closer to the block.

The people in the office, alerted by the noise of the chopper, look out the window, see the message, and hold a heads together conference. 20 mins later, they hold up a similar sign which says 'You are in a Helicopter'!

The pilot exclaims 'Aha', pulls on the throttles, and 5 mins later they are landed at the airport.

The businessman is amazed, and said to the pilot " How did that message make sense"?

To which the pilot replies,

" The answer they provided was 100% accurate, but also 100% Useless"!



" So, I figured it was the Microsoft Building, and I know my way from there"!!
