There's a cat back in the White House!  Love the story behind her too:

Wish that I could find footage and/or photos of when Willow jumped up onto the stage while Dr. Biden was speaking.  :D

Too bad about the cigarette in his hand, which was the ultimate cause of his demise.

For those inclined to take such bullshit seriously.  :laugh:

No, it can be found a good story without taking bullshit seriously.

Well, in my book Hansel and Gretel or Puss-in-Boots are good, even great stories, while fictional to the point of absurdity accounts of Paganini's life are bullshit. Heck, even Amadeus is bullshit in my book. YMMV, of course.  ;)

Thanks for underscoring my point 8)  Amadeus is both bullshit and a great stage play.

Never watched the stage play --- thoroughly enjoyed the (bullshity) movie.  :D

Good evening, Karl.

Pun intended?  :D

No. In fact it was so unintended it took me a minute to see what you meant.
Good catch.
