You asked for it...
A salesman, a project manager, and a programmer are kidnapped by terrorists on the way to a customer demo. The company refuses to pay ransom so they are to be executed. The kidnappers grant each a last request.
The salesman said, "I have been working very hard on a Power Point presentation of our new release and I haven't had a chance to present it yet. It's only 143 slides and 2 hours long, and I'd like to present it before I'm killed."
The project manager said, "I have developed a new methodology for implementing our new release. I'd like to present 25 flip chart pages to describe it. I will only take one hour."
