-Brussels police department, how may I assist you?-
-Uh.. yes.. I just got hit in the face with a cream pie.-
-Okay, sir. Have you called the Brussels police department
before?-
-No-
-Well, let me get a little information about you for our
records. Your name?-
-Bill Gates-
-Country?-
-The USA-
-Native language?-
-English-
-Okay, sir. Your police department ID number is BP31415927.
Please use this number the next time you call. Now, you say you
were hit in the face with a pie?-
-Yes, I was just about to meet with the Belgian Prime Minister.
One person distracted me while another hit me with a cream
pie.-
-We've had other customers report that they were hit in the
face with a custard pie. Are you sure it was a cream pie?-
-Well, I have white stuff all over my face and I don't see any
custard, so I really don't think it was a custard pie.-
-Have you visited the Prime Minister before?-
-Yes-
-Were you hit in the face with a pie then?-
-No-
-Hmm... have you visited any other Prime Ministers in the past
month?-
-Yes-
-Any pies then?-
-No-
-Okay, well.. let's try something. Go outside the building and
come in again. I'll wait.-
-Just a minute..- (several minutes pass)-Okay, I'm back.-
-Did you get hit by another pie?-
-Of course not-
-Well sir, I don't know what could have caused the first pie,
but it looks like things are working fine now. I'll make a note
of the problem, though. If it happens again, please note the
exact details of the situation and call us again. Thank you for
calling the Brussels Police Department.
