One of my favorite jokes:::Long:::What about Bob

Fred and his friend Bob walked into town one day. "Hey Bob!" one woman said in passing. "Lovely day, isn't it Bob?" said the next man that passed. After the third and fourth person to pass had all greeted Bob, Fred felt compelled to say something. "You sure seem to know a lot of people Bob" said Fred. "Everyone knows me." said Bob. Fred laughs. "Everyone? Hah, not everyone can know you!" Fred says with a chuckle. "Really, ill show you" Bob says confidently. Fred and Bob traveled to the mayor's house. Upon arrival the doors open wide and the mayor steps out. "Bob!" the mayor exclaims enthusiastically. "I don't believe it!" says Fred "The mayor must know lots of people though." "Okay... Cmon" says Bob. Bob takes Fred to the White House. The security guards and secret service agents simply nod and step to the side for Bob. Fred is in disbelief. Bob and Fred walk straight into the oval office. Fred's jaw gapes as he sets eyes upon the president! "Bob! What's new?" says the president. "Okay, this is impressive, but not EVERYBODY can know you Bob," says Fred. "Okay... Come with me" says Bob. Bob and Fred Fly to Italy and head directly for the Vatican. Standing outside of the Vatican a crowd begins to form. "Wait here," Bob says. Moments later, Bob emerges on the balcony of the Vatican with none other than the Pope! The crowd begins cheering loudly! Looking off the balcony, Bob could see that Fred had fainted. Bob quickly rushed to him. Bob arrived at Fred's side just as he was regaining consciousness. "I guess you were pretty shocked that the Pope knows me!" said Bob. "It wasn't that..." said Fred, "when you two came out on the balcony, the guy behind me said 'whos that with Bob?'"
