Air Force One arrives at Heathrow and President Bush strides to a warm and dignified welcome handshake from the Queen.
They ride in a 1934 Bentley to the edge of central London where they board a magnificent 17th. century carriage hitched to six magnificent white horses. They ride towards Buckingham Palace waving to the thousands of cheering Britons. All is going well.
Suddenly the right rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous earth-shattering fart and the smell was excruciating. Both of them had to use handkerchiefs over their noses. The Queen turns to President Bush,
"Mr. President, please accept my regrets. I am sure you understand there are some things that even a Queen cannot control."
George Bush, always trying to be "Presidential," replies:
"Your Majesty, do not give the matter another thought. If you had not mentioned it, I would have thought it was one of the horses."
