: One sunny day in 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 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 U. S. Marine, saying "I would like to go in and meet with President Bush."
: The Marine, somewhat 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."

The agent looked at the him and said, "Sir, The Bears did not make the playoffs." GBBob said, "Okay" and walked away.

:The following day, he approached Soldier Field and said to the
: same agent, "I would like Chicago Bears Playoff tickets."
:The agent again told the him, "Sir, as I said yesterday, the Bears did not make the playoffs."

: The third day, he once again approached Soldier Field and spoke to the very
: same agent, saying "I would like Chicago Bears playoff tickets"
: The agent, somewhat agitated at this point, looked at him and said,
: "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking about Bears playoff tickets. I've told you already that the Bears didn't make the playoffs. Don't you understand?"
