Bono, lead singer of the rock band U2, is famous throughout the
entertainment industry for being more than just a little self-righteous.

At a U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland, he asked the audience for
total quiet. Then, in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands,
once every few seconds.

Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone, "Every
time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."

A voice with a broad Scottish accent from the front of the crowd pierced
the quiet...

"Well, stop doin it then, ya evil bastard!"
 
You almost owed me a new laptop when I read that one with coffee in my mouth. :lol:

not to thread jack...

but that line reminded me of another Bono joke.

A guy dies and goes to heaven. Peter is givin the guy a tour of all of heaven when all of a sudden Jimmi Hendrix walks by.

the guy stops Peter and says "DUDE! you guys got Jimmi"
Peter says back to the guy "sure, we got tons of note worthy people here"

a few moments later Stevie Ray Vaughn walks by.
the guy is again awestruck. "WOW" he exclaims. "youve got Stevie?"

"yup" Peter says calmly. "We have a bunch of people youll know. "

Just as the guy is getting over the shock of seeing these rock superstars he sees Bono walking buy.

Confused, he asks peter "uhh... i thought Bono was still alive?"

Peter responds as he rolls his eyes "he is alive. thats Jesus, he just thinks he's Bono. "
