After a president has been in office for six months or so, it is customary for the previous president to send a note to the new one. So when the note came from Bush to Obama the president was mystified because it was written in code and all it said was:
370H-SSV-0773H
This troubled him as he had believed the media that former president Bush was perceived to have been scholarly challenged. So he took the note to his wife. She was unable to decipher it.
They called in the VP, and he was unable to decode the message. They called in the chief of staff and the head of Secret Service detail and they were unable to determine the meaning of the note.
Next he called in the Senate leader and Speaker of the House. They both were unable to discover the meaning of the coded message. By then, there was complete panic in the oval office.
They called all of their contacts in the media and sent copies of the note to all of them, and not one was able to come up with an answer
A special emergency meeting was called. All the best minds were unable crack the code.
After a sleepless night, Obama picked up the phone and called the former president and asked him the meaning of the note.
"W" replied: Dude, you're holding it upside down.
