This reminds me of a favourite story about Calvin Coolidge when he was Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts. After being re-elected in 1916?, Coolidge, who had a well earned reputation of having a very dry sense of humour, was attending a political dinner.

When he was introduced to some high-society lady, he said "Hello, I'm Calvin Coolidge, the Lieutenant Governor"

The socialite responded "oh, how interesting, you must tell me all about it.

Coolidge responded, "I just did."
