SI MIDNIGHT RAG EVENING EDITION BROKER SUSPENDED/FLATULENCE SCANDAL Friday, March 06, 1998 (SIMR) Hoosier Bob "Top Broker, at Druss's Boiler Room Discount Brokerage's for the last three months in a row" was suspended for six months today for "vulgar and offensive" behavior. According to un-named sources, the incident occured while he was sitting in on a private conference between Druss and their biggest client Microsoft owner Bill Gates and his wife. It's claimed that Mr.Bob perhaps accidentally broke wind in the presence of a Mr. Gates and his wife, who took offense. However, the discipline committee at Druss's Boiler Room Discount Brokerages found that Mr.Bob compounded the problem by asking Bill Gates' wife if she "wanted more" before loudly passing gas directly into her face. It is unknown if Mr. Gates still has an account at Druss Boiler Room Discount Brokerages. Mr. Bob refused to comment, but an eye-watering odor seem to fill the air only seconds before he left the hearing.(c)
