One sunny day in 2005 an old man approached the White House from across
Pennsylvania Ave, where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to
the US 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
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, as I said yesterday, Mr. Bush is
no longer president and no longer resides here." The man thanked him
and, again, just walked away.
The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the
very same US 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. I've told you already that 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."

Thanks, Tom. BTW, Ask the same source if they can tell us who wins the Superbowl. Or will that answer just be a fantasy, too?
