Subject: 1st good joke on the change ....
One sunny day in January, 2009 an old man approached the White House
from
across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he'd been sitting on a park bench.
He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, 'I would like to go
in
and meet with President Bush.'
The Marine looked at the man and said, 'Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer the
president and no longer resides here.'
The old man said, 'Okay' ... and walked away.
The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to
the
same Marine, I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.'
The Marine again told the man, 'Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer the president
and
no longer resides here.'
The man thanked him and, again ... walked away.
The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the
very
same U.S. Marine, saying, 'I would like to go in and meet with President
Bush.'
The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and
said, 'Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to
speak to Mr. Bush. Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no longer
resides here. Don't you understand?'
The old man looked at the Marine and said, 'Oh, I understand. I just
love
hearing it.'
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, 'See you tomorrow,
Sir.'
