Hey, we’re out of paper towels!

Blog Guy, I see that President and Mrs. Obama had a little getaway this weekend. That’s nice, especially after those worrisome signs of stress you wrote about recently. So what did they do?
They went to North Carolina and toured the famed Biltmore Estate. It was a rare opportunity for them to see a historic mansion and be surrounded by priceless antiques.
Huh? But they live in the…
Yeah, the White House, I know. They also enjoyed the local North Carolina food.
Is that a good restaurant?
It must be. There’s a roll of paper towels on each table, isn’t there?
What’s up with that card that says “99″ on it?
It’s the restaurant’s way of tracking orders, in case the waitress forgets that Order 99 goes to the President of the United States.
It looks almost as if Obama is shouting and making faces.
Yeah, Obama is kind of a clown at restaurants. He likes to holler stuff like, “Can’t a president get some ketchup out here?” and “Who knows ‘Hail to the Chief’?”
Blog Guy, you’re making stuff up again, aren’t you?
Well, yes. This is just an Obama lookalike couple they send out on road trips. The real Barack and Michelle ate at a five-star French place in trendy, elegant, leafy Georgetown that day.
I thought so. There. Don’t you feel better now, Blog Guy?
You bet. Thanks for keeping me honest.

What if you turn the 99 over, divide 12 by 2, what do you have? Scary huh?
“Now Obama schnookums, keep your hands on your lab like a good boy until your food arrives. That’s a good POTUS.”
That’s a skinny stone lion.
Or should that be, “Keep your hands on the table where we can all seen them.” ifly
Good point, he is probably signing more stuff into law under there.
We will find out what’s in it later.
I cant help but notice Michelle’s “ponytail”…
I love when presidents like to act like humans
“99 bills to sing into law,
“99 bills so siiiign,
“The Rebups so no, I tell them where to go,
“98 bills to sign into law…..”
oops…that shoulda been *sign* into law.
But I think ya get the gist. :p
Another example of NOT pandering to the girls… NO decent shoe shots!
In his defense…he ain’t pandering to anyone here.
And there is a shoe shot in the second pic. Michelles shoe is so silver that she said the hell with bullets.. she is gonna kill some werewolves by kicking them square in the ass!
There’s far more eye candy here for the fellas ifly, you have to admit that.
I’m not so much a shoe person though, wouldn’t call that eye-candy really, I mean for me personally.
E.
Mr. Pilot… you have been drooling over Miranda Kerr, drunken girls and “Charlie’s Angels”… now that you have had your fill, you are picking sides with him!
And I did mention, DECENT shoe shots… thats INDECENT!
Ok, time for my medis!
Shra…”Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.” In this case it’s multiple women. Do you think there is any thought in my pea-sized brain that Imma go up against that? In short, no.
In long, nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooo
I really just wanted to make a werewolf joke.
In any other circumstance I’d make a joke about ifly not wanting to take on ‘multiple women’. But I won’t.
Haha.
Werewolf joke? You been watching Twilight again ifly?
E.
E, now that was some booty… I mean, he looked really strong… I mean, I wouldnt want my man to be that chunky.. but he was certainly eye-candy!
Look waht Baz has got us too… we have to IMAGINE eyecandy!!!!
Oh my goodness Shra I know what you mean. I have to be careful when I drool over that one, I mean cougars and werewolves usually don’t mix if you know what I’m sayin’.
E.
Oh you know me E.. I am all about the sparkly, twinkly, pansy-arsed, metrosexual vampires. :p
It ain’t the heart they be wanting a stake stuck!
And pretend it’s any other circumstance… let’s see wuthca got!
I should think it would have been quite obvious ifly.
E.
Oh trust me I already went through the Roledex of jokes that could be made from that comment. I just wanted to see which one you came up with.
Oh right. Well I’m trying to keep to my record. Only one post has been banned so far. And even then I think it was an accident.
So I’ll leave my reply up to your imagination. Notwithstanding someone else’s assertion that you don’t have one. An imagination that is.
E.
Oh he does….
And it is far from weak too. :p Well ok then E if you leave it up to my imagination then the only reply I can offer is you need to wash your mind out with soap!!
Oooh that reminds me of this fabulous hotel I saw in the wilds of Ireland. The rooms have a double shower with a sea view. Sexy!!
E.
Darn you, E! Now I gotta think of that toooo!
And with that Shra, we are right back where ifly started with the multiple women that he can’t handle.
E.
Multiple women SCORNED E! The context is very important! :p
Even for a look-alike couple, they are convincing!
I heard somewhere that Obama can do a mean trick with a pair of Paper Hand Towels … Ask him
