A pizza joint in Rome received a call one evening from the Vatican, ordering a lot of pizzas to be delivered to the Viale Vaticano entrance as soon as possible. Since the prospects were for a good tip, the two delivery boys had an argument over who should deliver the order. The stronger one won, and when returned, the loser said somewhat bitterly that the least the other could do was to share the tip. "All right, I'll give you *half* of it," said the winner, making GESTURE.
