Salon ran the following photo and asked readers to submit their captions. I’ve included a few of my favorite responses:

As Bono tells George W. Bush about the growing pandemic of AIDS in Africa, the president recalls that he “partied with some Africans once.” — William Wood

“Karl, I think the hairpiece and the glasses work. Just don’t speak to Judy Miller again.” — Mark Gorman

“I have you on my iPod. I like to listen to you while I am presidenting.” — Anonymous

President Bush invites Bono to sit behind the desk in the Oval Office, promises to be “right back.” — Bob Glickstein

“Hey, rock star, got any blow? I’m kidding! Totally kidding! Seriously, do you?” — Jeremy Resnick

Bono: “No, seriously, I don’t have any, haven’t done it since the ’80s.” Bush: “But you’d know where to get some, right?” — Stan Denski

Shortly after this photograph was taken, President Bush remarked to an aide that he was “surprised that the president of Ireland didn’t wear a tie.” — Dallas Hayes

“You’re shittin’ me — $35 for an eighth?” — Joe Francia
