Abie, a somewhat shy and retiring gentleman who lives a bit southwest,
sent this one describing it as one of the best jokes to come along in awhile...

As Air Force One arrives at Heathrow Airport, President Obama strides to
a warm and dignified reception from the Queen.

They are driven in a 1934 Bentley to the edge of central London, where
they change to a magnificent 17th century carriage hitched to six white
horses.

They continue on towards Buckingham Palace, waving to the thousands
of cheering Brits; all is going well.

Suddenly the right rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous earth
shattering fart ever heard in the British Empire, which shook the coach.

The smell is atrocious and both passengers in the carriage must use their
handkerchiefs over their noses. The two dignitaries of State do their best
to ignore the incident.

The Queen turns to President Obama: "Mr. President, please accept my
regrets... I am sure you understand there are some things that even a
queen cannot control."

Obama, always trying to be Presidential replied: "Your Majesty, do not
give the matter another thought... Until you mentTioned it, I thought it
was one of the horses."
