WorldCom Finds Another $3.3 Billion⦠Socks⦠Keysâ¦
WorldCom said today it had uncovered $3.3 billion in additional accounting irregularities, an equivalent number of pens, 80 million socks that are lacking a pair and the set of keys you misplaced last Sunday.
Investigators looking into the collapsed telecommunications giant have also dug up wreckage from the Titanic, several thousand missing ballots from the 1960 presidential election and nuclear weapons secrets from the former Soviet Union.
"Well, you know how a few billion dollars in change or a countryâs nuclear stockpile can slip into those little pockets between the sofa cushions. I just hate it when that happens," remarked one WorldCom official when asked to comment on the recent discoveries.
Those close to the investigation say they hope to locate a cure for AIDS, help clear up some confusion scientists are having on the theory of relativity and find out what hot dogs are really made out of as more information continues to come out about the company.
