You may need to be from Pittsburgh or the Burgh areas to appreciate this story.
The year is 2016 and the United States has just elected the first woman
president, who happens to be from Pittsburgh. A few days after the election
the president-elect, whose name is Susan, calls her Father and says, 'So,
Dad, I assume you will be coming to my inauguration?'
'I don't think so. It's an 8 hour drive."
'Don't worry about it Dad, I'll send Air Force One. And a limousine will
pick you up at your door.'
'I don't know. Everybody will be so fancy. What would your mother wear?'
Oh Dad," replies Susan, 'I'll make sure she has a wonderful gown custom-made
by the best designer in Washington ..'
'Honey,' Dad complains, 'you know I can't eat those rich foods you eat.' Do
they serve tap beer ?
The President-to-be responds, 'Don't worry Dad. The entire affair will be
handled by the best caterer in Washington , I'll ensure your meals are salt
free. You and mom just have to be there.'
So Dad reluctantly agrees and on January 20, 2017, Susan is being sworn in
as President of the United States . In the front row sits the new
president's Dad and Mom. Dad noticing the senator sitting next to him leans
over and whispers, 'You see that woman over there with her hand on the
Bible, becoming President of the United States '
The Senator whispers back, 'You bet I do.'
Dad says proudly, "Her brother played football for the Steelers."
