There Is No Cat

Same time tomorrow?

I don’t remember where I heard or read this joke, but I like it.

An elderly man in Washington, DC, walks by the White House each day. On January 21, he approaches one of the Marine guards in front of the White House and asks if this is where President Bush lives.

The Marine replies, "Mr. Bush is no longer President. He doesn’t live here any more. President Barack Obama lives here now."

The following day, the man returns. He asks the same Marine the same question, and gets the same reply: "Mr. Bush is no longer President. He doesn’t live here any more. President Barack Obama lives here now."

The third day, he returns and asks his question yet again. The Marine replies, "Sir, I have explained to you yesterday and the day before. Mr. Bush is no longer President. He doesn’t live here any more."

"I know," says the man. "I just love hearing it."

The Marine smiles. "Same time tomorrow, sir?"
