  3.  Is anyone in your family married to Bill Gates?
  4. Would they like to be?
  5. Are you willing to sleep with anyone in order to secure a grant for our agency?
  6. Even Bill Gates?

  10. Are you going to leave your money to kids who might grow up to marry a Republican or Democrat (underline appropriate choice) or to an agency with a proven track record?
  11. Have you led a wicked life? If so, were you raised in a shame-based religion?  Would you be willing to take a monetary approach at regaining your place in heaven?
