Title: Mental deficiency
Post by: Tango on January 18, 2009, 11:11:22 AM
A noted psychiatrist was a guest speaker at an academic function where Nancy Pelosi happened to appear. Ms. Pelosi took the opportunity to schmooze the good doctor a bit and asked him a question with which he was most at ease. 'Would you mind telling me, Doctor,' she asked, 'how you detect a mental deficiency in somebody who appears completely normal?' 'Nothing is easier,' he replied. 'You ask a simple question which anyone should answer with no trouble. If the person hesitates, that puts you on the track.' 'What sort of question?' asked Pelosi. Well, you might ask, ' Captain Cook made three trips around the world and died during one of them. Which one?'' Pelosi thought a moment, and then said with a nervous laugh, 'You wouldn't happen to have another example would you? I must confess I don't know much about history.'

Picasso dies and arrives at the pearly gates.  St. Peter is there, and he tells Picasso "before I can admit you to heaven, I need to verify your identity.  Can you prove that you're really Picasso?"  Picasso asks for a canvas and paint and quickly creates a bizarre scene for St. Peter who says, "you really are Picasso!" and lets him into heaven.
Einstein dies and the same routine happens.  He asks for a chalkboard and chalk and posthumously unifies general relativity and quantum mechanics for St. Peter, who says "you really are Einstein!" and lets him into heaven.
Then, George W. Bush dies and arrives at the pearly gates.  St. Peter asks him to prove his identity, and Bush answers "Why should I have to do that?  I was the president of the United States!"
St. Peter sighs and tries to explain, "Look George, Picasso proved he was Picasso, and Einstein proved he was Einstein.  Can't you please cooperate?"
Bush blinks, scowls and says: "Who's Picasso and who's Einstein?"
