Joke of the Week

"The Pope celebrated his 81st birthday at the White House this week, so we ask our panelists: What did President Bush get the Pope for his birthday?"
"Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me"

"He gave him a particularly big and tough and rangy and hard to ride Texas horse; because this horse is famous throughout Texas for separating the men from the boys."
Humorist and author Roy Blount Jr.

Listen to Blount tell the joke in front of Wait, Wait's studio audience. Nearly as funny as the joke itself is the ripple of understanding racing through the audience.
