Negative People

[Paulette]

This is something to think about when negative people are doing

> A woman was at her hairdresser's getting her hair styled for a trip to Rome
> with her husband. She mentioned the trip to the hairdresser, who responded:
>
>
>
> "Rome? Why would anyone want to go there? It's crowded and dirty. You're
> crazy to go to Rome. So, how are you getting there?"
>
>
>
> "We're taking Continental," was the reply. "We got a great rate!"
>
>
>
> "Continental?" exclaimed the hairdresser. "That's a terrible airline. Their
> planes are old, their flight attendants are ugly, and they're always late.
>
>
>
> So, where are you staying in Rome?"
>
>
>
> "We'll be at this exclusive little place over on Rome's Tiber River called
> Teste."
>
>
>
> "Don't go any further. I know that place. Everybody thinks it's gonna be
> something special and exclusive, but it's really a dump, the worst hotel in
> the city! The rooms are small, the service is surly, and they're overpriced.
>
>
>
> So, whatcha' doing when you get there?"
>
>
>
> "We're going to go to see the Vatican and we hope to see the Pope."
>
>
>
> "That's rich," laughed the hairdresser. "You and a million other people
> trying to see him-he'll look the size of an ant.
>
>
>
> Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You're going to need it."
>
>
>
> A month later, the woman again came in for a hairdo. The hairdresser asked
> her about her trip to Rome.
>
>
>
> "It was wonderful," explained the woman, "not only were we on time in one of
> Continental's brand new planes, but it was overbooked, and they bumped us up
> to first class. The food and wine were wonderful, and I had a handsome
> 28-year-old steward who waited on me hand and foot.
>
>
>
> And the hotel was great! They'd just finished a $5 million remodeling job,
> and now it's a jewel, the finest hotel in the city. They, too, were
> overbooked, so they apologized and gave us their owner's suite at no extra
> charge!"
>
>
>
> "Well," muttered the hairdresser, "that's all well and good, but I know you
> didn't get to see the Pope."
>
>
>
> "Actually, we were quite lucky, because as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss
> Guard tapped me on the shoulder, and explained that the Pope likes to meet
> some of the visitors, and if I'd be so kind as to step into his private room
> and wait, the Pope would personally greet me.
>
>
>
> Sure enough, five minutes later, the Pope walked through the door and shook
> my hand! I knelt down and he spoke a few words to me."
>
>
>
> "Oh,really! What'd he say?"
>
>
>
> He said: "Where'd you get the shitty Hairdo?"
