FWD: FW: Bad, Bad

The mayor could not remove the pigeons from the city. All of Phoenix was full of
pigeon poop. The people of Phoenix couldn't walk on the sidewalks or drive on the
roads. It was costing a fortune to try to keep the streets and sidewalks clean.

One day a man came to City Hall and offered the Mayor a proposition. "I can rid
your beautiful city of its plague of pigeons without cost to the city. But, you must
promise not to ask me any questions. Or, you can pay me one million dollars
and ask one question."

The mayor considered the offer briefly and accepted the free proposition.

The next day the man climbed to the top of City Hall, opened his coat and
released a blue pigeon. The blue pigeon circled in the air and flew up into the
bright blue Arizona sky. All the pigeons in Phoenix saw the blue pigeon. They
gathered up behind the blue pigeon. The Phoenix pigeons followed the blue
pigeon as she flew southward out of the city.

The next day the blue pigeon returned completely alone to the man atop City
Hall. The Mayor was very impressed. He thought the man and the blue pigeon
had performed a wonderful miraculous feat to rid Phoenix of the plague of pigeons.

Even though the man with the pigeon had charged nothing, the mayor presented
him with a check for 1 million dollars and told the man that, indeed, he did have
a question to ask and even though they had agreed to no fee and the man had
rid the city of pigeons, he decided to pay the 1 million just to get to ask
ONE question.

The man accepted the money and told the mayor to ask his question.
