8. I can stay awake!
Only because I'm giggling--every time I see Fred I think of the Forrest Gump clip Stephanie Miller always plays when they talk about him: "Ah'm pretty tahrd. Think Ah'll go home..."

16. Easily done!!! That is a fascinating photo...look at the two rings on those hands,
those hands that are posed to suggest a desire to STRANGLE someone, or perhaps to describe the two delightful melons he got for his wifey, Boobsie McJugsalot, or whatever her name is. Note the pattern on the tie, which Boobsie probably selected for him--not a sharp pick for TV, that.

And then, there's that FACE!! Look at that fabulous face!!! Those two Samsonites under the eyes...those massive, serving dish-EARS that cover half of the side of his head....those saggy, flapping lips...his entire visage, which emulates that of a drunken shar-pei!

His rapid weight loss has left him with a poor fit for his skin. It's sorta suggestive, that, because he's a poor fit for the presidency as well!!

Best thing about the pic? Good suit--high end shirt, too. Even the tie isn't cheap, it's just not "Presidential." The colors are OK, the design is a bit ... 'unserious.'

22. Couldn't do it...
...after a few seconds of looking at Fred, my skin started feeling all jowly and I felt a dewlap emerging to stop my whistle short.

And I'm only 25! That's creepy...:scared:

35. OK, at least it's
better than yesterday's picture of Limbaugh.

I was going to mention it, but it would have come out as a "low quality statement" as we used to say in the TQM days.

33. Good news: I did it.
Bad news: my eyeballs, in a brazen act of rebellion, wiggled out of the socket and are now half way to Colorado.

Maybe I can use that $10 to buy a new pair.
