I thought this was a great "funny."
The Pope is visiting Washington DC and President Bush takes him out for an afternoon on the Potomac. While sailing on the President's Yacht they are admiring the sights.
All of a sudden, the Pope's hat (zucchetto) blows off his head and out into the water. Secret service agents start to launch a boat, but Bush waves them off, saying "Wait, wait. I'll take care of this. Don't worry."
President Bush then steps off the yacht onto the surface of the water and walks out to the Holy Father's 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 Washington Post carried the story, with front page photos, of the event. The banner headline is: "Bush Can't Swim!"
