7-7 changed everything

Maureen Dowd finds an anecdote in Bob Woodward's State of Denial:

W. [Bush] and Karl Rove "shared an array of fart jokes," Mr. Woodward writes. A White House aide put a toy that made a flatulence sound under Karl’s chair for a morning meeting on July 7, 2005. When officials learned of the terrorist attacks in London that day, the prank was postponed. But several weeks later, "the device was placed under Rove’s chair and activated during the senior staff meeting. Everyone laughed."
