THE POPE VISITS WASHINGTON:
The Pope is visiting Washington, D.C. and President Bush takes him
out for an afternoon on the Potomac sailing on the Presidential
yacht, the Sequoia.
They're admiring the sights when, all of a sudden, the Pope's hat
(zucchetto) blows off his head and out into the water.
Secret service guys start to launch a boat, but President Bush
waves them off, saying, "Wait, wait. I'll take care of this. Don't
worry." Bush then steps off the yacht onto the surface of the
water and walks out to the little hat, bends over and picks it up,
then walks back to the yacht and climbs aboard. He hands the
hat to the Pope amid stunned silence.
The next morning the headlines in New York Times, Boston Globe,
Baltimore Sun, Milwaukee Sentinel-Journal, Minneapolis Tribune,
Denver Post, Albuquerque Journal, Los Angeles Times and
the San Francisco Chronicle! proclaim:
