Bob and his friend are sitting on front porch admiring the sunset.
 
 Bob has a proud smile on his face when he says, "You know, I don't
 think there's anyone on this planet I don't know."
 
 His friend looks at him, "What? You're kidding!"
 
 Bob says, "No. I think I know just about everybody."
 
 Bob's friend says, "I bet you don't know the governor."
 
 "George? Yeah, I know ol' George, as a matter of fact, I'm having
 dinner with him Tuesday. Why don't you come along?"
 
 They show up at the governor's mansion Tuesday, Governor Bush
 opens up the door himself. "Hey, Bob! How are ya doin'? Come on
 in!"
 
 Bob's friend is quite impressed, but still not convinced Bob knows
 everybody. A few days later he tells Bob. "I bet you don't know
 Bruce Springsteen."
 
 "Bruce? Sure I know the Boss! We used to hang out together in
 Jersey!"
 
 "Bob, I don't believe you. I think you're lying to me."
 
 "No, really," Bob responds, "In fact, he's putting on a show
 tomorrow night. Lets go."
 
 Bob and his friend make their way up to front row. Bruce
 Springsteen looks down and says, "I'd like to dedicate this next
 song to my good friend Bob here."
 
 The friend is getting totally freaked by now. He is determined to
 find someone Bob doesn't know. A couple of weeks later, Bob is
 once again sitting on the porch with that proud smile on his face,
 when his friend pulls up in the driveway, jumps out of the car and
 says, "Aha! You don't know the Pope!"
 
 "The Pope? Sure I know ol' John Paul!"
 
 "You're lyin', Bob! I don't believe you!"
 
 "I'll prove it to you," Bob says.
 
 So they fly over to the Vatican. Bob's friend stands near the
 front of the crowd waiting for the Pope to come out on the
 balcony. Soon the Pope appears before the thousands of people in
 the crowd. Sure enough, right behind him comes Bob. Standing next
 to the Pope and waving at the crowds. After a bit Bob looks down
 and sees his friend passed out on the ground. He runs down to the
 street to his friend and says, "Hey, you okay?"
 
 "Yeah, I'm okay. I was standing here in shock when all of a sudden
 a guy leans towards me and says, 'Hey, who's that standing next to
 Bob?'"
