Churchill's Speech / Business is Business
Winston Churchill was the Prime Minister of Britain during the 2nd
World War. One day Churchill was going to the BBC to make an important
speech to the nation when a funny thing happened.
An hour before the time of his speech, Churchill stopped a taxi and
told the driver to take him to the BBC, but the taxi driver didn't
recognize him and said, "I'm sorry but I can't take you there. I'm going
home now, because I want to hear Churchill speech".
Churchill was very happy to hear that and he gave the man 2 pounds ( a
lot of money in those days). "All right, get in" said the man happily,
opening the door of the taxi. "Let´s go and to hell with churchill and
his speech".
