He smells the aroma and can't help himself — he runs in there and eats a slice of pizza. POOF! He disappears.</p> <p> Ru Paul and Bill Gates are astonished and agree that that won't happen to them. So they resume walking down the street when Bill Gates spots a shiny, new quarter. He thinks that if he picks it up, he can found a new company and become fabulously wealthy again. He bends down to pick up the quarter and POOF!
