He was always called upon to attend at weddings, parties, and especially social functions. This strenuous schedule began to take it's toll on him, and one day he decided to use the current advances of science and literally split himself in two. He had himself cloned. Unfortunately, the businessman had gone to a bottom-dollar cloner (more of a mad scientist type, actually). The clone looked exactly like the businessman, but his personality was exactly opposite. Where the businessman was a kind and benevolent fellow, the clone was crude and vulgar. Things came to a head one day when the businessman discovered that the clone had lifted his secretary's skirt in full view of the rest of the office. The businessman decided that he had to get rid of the clone. He asked him to leave, but the clone just laughed. Then he asked him how much money he would take to leave, but the clone laughed harder. At this point the businessman lunged at the clone and began to chase him around the office, but the clone escaped to the stairs. Coming out on the roof, the businessman noticed his clone standing a little too close to the edge. Quickly running over, the businessman shoved the clone and watched him fall over the edge. Sadly, the man did not escape the notice of the authorities. He was arrested the next day and charged with "Making an obscene clone fall" ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
