Subject: When Albert Einstein


When Albert Einstein was making the rounds of the
speaker's circuit, he usually found himself eagerly
longing to get back to his laboratory work. One night
as they were driving to yet another rubber-chicken
dinner, Einstein mentioned to his chauffeur (a man who
somewhat resembled Einstein in looks & manner) that he
was tired of speechmaking.

"I have and idea, boss," his chauffeur said. "I've
heard you give this speech so many times. I'll bet I
could give it for you."

Einstein laughed loudly and said, "Why not? Let's do
it!"

When they arrive at the dinner, Einstein donned the
chauffeur's cap and jacket and sat in the back of the
room. The chauffeur gave a beautiful rendition of
Einstein's speech and even answered a few questions
expertly.

Then a supremely pompous professor asked an extremely
esoteric question about anti-matter formation,
digressing here and there to let everyone in the
audience know that he was nobody's fool.

Without missing a beat, the chauffeur fixed the
professor with a steely stare and said, "Sir, the
answer to that question is so simple that I will let my
chauffeur, who is sitting in the back, answer it for
me."
