[Bucky]

White House Butler Von Everett pumps up a basketball for the president.

2. Don't all job descriptions have the clause....

"and anything else we tell you to do."? Looks like a tough gig. He could even be sitting down if he wanted to. :cry:

3. I don't know about that

The Prez may have even had a job description that requested the butler to play basketball. Ya never know.

4. beats cleaning up puke and pretzel crumbs from the last guy

I would love to hear stories from any WH staff that stayed through the transition.

5. Cool. The basketballs have Obama logos.

Don't know about the job description, but yours is one great picture.
It's nice to have a President who likes sports more than golf....ahh.



Pardon me for adding that the situation at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
may remind one of Jeeves and Wooster.

6. Had to look twice

but that's definitely Gregory House MD (Hugh Laurie) on the left.

7. Good eyes. Laurie played P.G. Wodehouse's Wooster on BBC-TV.

Stephen Fry played Reginald Jeeves.

If you like House, you'll love "Jeeves and Wooster."

Wodehouse was a genius.

8. I 2nd that rec for Jeeves and Wooster.

And, both Fry and Laurie written books. I have read Laurie's, tracking down Stephen Fry's.
