Glad to know the name. I knew they weren't saying "call me!" but that was what I had to call it.

AND a pic of Obama without a jacket on in the Oval Office. There was a "Jackets Required" rule for the Oval Office in W's 8 years. No more.

Hmm... its like someone is there to get some work done and someone was there for photo ops.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Both our dogs are shelter dogs so "breed" is a bit subjective, but we've got a beagle so we're with the crowd there. Our other dog is harder to place breedwise.
