Goose!
This news pic of Canadian PM Harper and US Prez Bush caught my fancy. The caption possibilities boggle the imagination:
Or...
Other suggestions?
On a related topic, Mrs. M asks the very good question: Why the hell is Harper wearing a flak jacket in Mexico (in fact, the same exact outfit he wore to Afghanistan) when everyone else is wearing sunny whites?
...and another thing: What is that in Harper's pocket? I can make out a couple of ring-like shapes which look very suspicious.
Maybe that explains the flak jacket. Maybe Peter Mackay told him "Hey, if you're going to Cancun, make sure you take protection." Harper was too embarrassed to ask which kind, so he brought both. ;-)

Harper: "Fear not Mr. President, I'll protect your Southern Border. Will you need two, or will you need 3 camels?
Bush: *shocked* - At 4:02 p.m., Bathroom Hippo said...

Well, those are funny captions for a funny pic. Over at Yahoo News, there's plenty of "Hee-hee, I farted" pics, if you're interested. Ever notice many pics of politicians have them look like they just farted?
BTW, seriously, as for the thing in Mr. Harper's pocket and as for the flak vest, it's entirely possible he needs pocket space for medicinal aspirators in case of an asthma attack (my Dad has his in a fanny pack as he, too, has asthma).
I would suggest the caption for the pic:
"Mr. Harper demonstrates the dreaded "Downtown Montreal Handshake" to a very surprised Mr. Bush"
I guess the next picture taken would have the caption "Mr. Bush, in return, reminds Mr. Harper of the terrible "Shawinigan Handshake" of former PM Chretien" - At 3:39 p.m., Bathroom Hippo said...

Mentok,
Secure your borders! We're getting infiltrated by spies. We can't afford to allow them to learn our battle plans, or to poison your camels. - At 5:04 p.m., Library Mama said...

"Just thought I'd check to see how your twins are doing, Mr. President."
