Life is beautiful :)

just came across " The ten worst presentation moments " from a blog i read.
the one that made me laugh the most was

I then turned up ready to give the presentation with my presentation on a floppy disk. In the meeting room was a 35mm slide projector. The meeting organiser pointed to the corner and said in a somewhat insulted tone,“There is the power point; we do have electricity here – we are not that backward.”

I'll never forget being in an important business meeting with one billionaire and a few millionaires (none are me), I leaned over in my chair to get my laptop as I was talking with their full attention and let a quite audible fart fly unintentionally.

-- silence --

Without raising my head I said in a surprised tone "Oh! Excuse me".

The room busted out in laughter and I guess I was forgiven...
