>>>>On 8/6/00 1:41 PM so and so (Brad Fornal) said. (And I quote:)
>I believe it is safe to say that the Shah of Iran is a well known
>person. For those of you who don't know, his sons are known as "Shan's".
>Well as is customary of the area, the Shah had many sons and
>unfortunately one of his many sons was an epileptic. As all the sons of
>the Shah had bodyguards. The Shah saw to it that this particular son had
>the little extra attention needed to survive by having that son's
>bodyguards trained in how to deal with seizures when they occurred.
>
>Things went well for many years with the son and many times found
>himself more and more alone as the bodyguard, knowing the seizures were
>less frequent, had a tendency to wander off. Then one day while the poor
>Shan was alone he had a terrible seizure, and with no one there to help
>him, he quickly suffocated and died.
>
>THE SHAH WAS FURIOUS!!!!!!!!! He gathered all of the body guards into
>his royal chambers and proceeded to verbally assault each and every one
>of them. He screamed and yelled and threw temper tantrums. The stoic
>guards stood there calmly but all harbored the fear of death in the
>hearts for this unforgivable infraction. Finally the Shah calmed down a
>bit and said to them all. "I just want to know one
>thing.................
>Where were you when the fit hit the Shan!!"
