Good Old W
George W. was walking through an airport last week, when he saw an old man with white hair, a long white beard, holding stone tablets and a staff. He walked up to the man, who was staring at the ceiling, and said, "Excuse me sir, aren't you Moses?" The man stood pefectly still and continued to stare at the ceiling, saying nothing.
Again George W. asked, a little louder this time. "Excuse me sir, aren't you Moses?" Again the man stared at the ceiling motionless without saying a word.
Geroge W. tried a third time, louder yet. "Excuse mw sir, aren't you Moses?" Again no movement or words from the old man. He continued to stare at the ceiling.
One of Gerge W's aides asked him if there was a problem, and George W said, "Either this man is deaf or extremely rude. I have asked him three times if he was Moses, and he has not answered me yet."
To which the man, still staring at the ceiling finally ewplied, "I can hear you and yes, I am Moses, but the last time I spoke to a bush, I spent 40 years wandering in the wilderness.
