caring POTUS & VPOTUS!

Sorry I couldn't resist, but you walked right into that one if memory serves.

And I love that avatar! Who is that?

What good is one without the other?

they might be holding hands. Cute.

They are so genuine!

lucky, treestar!

Can't help but ask.

Not to mention that the general American aversion to touching other than sexually is another of our extremely unhealthy attitudes, which fortunately most of the world does not share.

VPrez!

That's one of the best shots of them ever on so many levels!!

That's teamwork.

So is this~ Your Favorite!

was too lazy to go look for it.

notworthy she

As treestar said.. "they're best buds" and I said, "yep, we got lucky!"

It's a keeper!

from files. I go looking for old posts on DU or the net.

But, in the spirit of Never Never Never Giving UP.. here's to Future Files

So it's easy to offload pics regularly and start on a whole new batch, knowing there'll be plenty more to come. In a few weeks I'll buy yet another thumb drive to COPY the pix one and store in my safety deposit box for safekeeping. I'm leaving instructions (and funds) to send them to a friend when and if I croak first.

I got this far without knowing all that stuff but I did!

Thumb drives are little storage units you pop into the usb slot of your computer; whatever you want to send to it, do so, and then pop it back out again. They're cheap, easy to use, and fabulous for portability though I use them for my file backups; one for docs, one for pix, and the third for music. You can buy them with anywhere from 2 GB to, I suppose, even a terrabyte but that would be sort of expensive. I also don't like everything left solely on one thumb drive because what happens if you lose or damage it? Speaking of damage, I got a nice soft case to keep mine in because I don't like putting the caps back on. They can get stuck and be hell to remove.

Lucky!

Did you check out the Raw Vid? It's very good!

I like what Dallas said..

28. This Was Brilliant

The symbolism of this walk only a couple of days after a sick woman rammed a Whitehouse gate is powerful. And nothing but happy faces is just the icing on the cake. Washington DC needed a moment like this to give them temporary cheer. Well done Mr. President. Well done.

is just a short clip reiterated a little of what he'd said in the one.

Remember a pic of him and Michelle doing the 'hang ten' gesture. Almost expected to see that.

He is surfing and keeping his balance like the Pro that he is. It's not an act. it's total awareness and riding the wave.



Obama Rides The Wave

At least that's what they said in 2008 and that it might carry thorugh 2016. Despite setbacks, he is looking decades ahead:

Here he's dealing with a big wave.. not as big an the current one but..

And, I cannot leave without out posting my son riding his big one in..



Mahalo for the link and pics, fresh!

Thanks for that awesome pic of your son, too.

I used to do many risky things and rode horses people swore couldn't be rode (I also got throwed - a lot!) but you couldn't get me on a surfboard in a plastic kiddy pool. I love the ocean but prefer to look at it from shore and weirdly enough, I love ocean-themed novels.

"Go for the chocolate macadamia." Totally unfazed. I'd have so many thoughts running through my head I'd be verbally paralyzed.

what a topic over Pizza and Brew tonight.

I know what you mean about the server who suggested the chocolate macadamia nut whatever it was! Total grace under fire

Dude in the Street "Keep up the Good Work"!

that must be such fun. If President Obama needs Delaware legal advice, I hope he comes by my office. Wouldn't it be fun? Those ladies filling the order must have had a blast. "I'm paying for Joe," lol.

What a conversation those kids willl have over Pizza and Brew tonight!

Mahalo, Cha, and thanks!

Me too.. this is me beaming

It was brilliant to go out and catch lunch at a local place today because..

They've still got it! Thanks for posting these very nice!

And, neither will we!

I notice that the President rarely wears sunglasses. I think it's because he wants people to see his face and shades tend to hide the face. (Why celebrities always wear them!) I read once that President Kennedy refused to wear sunglasses when he was giving speeches or shaking hands because he felt they covered him up too much.

Thanks for posting!



a.

Yeah, I was thinking about PBO not wearing shades today like VP Biden. I've seen him in them before but, you're right.. not very much.

'Course some people need to wear them.. I never wore them 'cause I wanted the Sun to shine in my eyes. But, now I wear them sometimes for not so much Sun.

Thanks for the history lesson on JFK..

with a dash of Denzel Washington thrown in. Check out these awesome photos of President Obama in Shades (with a dash of Joltin' Joe Biden):

said I've seen him in shades before! Love that pic.. lot of water under the bridge since then



Since then, too.



Thank you so much for all these pics of these Cool Dudes in their shades..

One more.. in the breeze!

He's got such a dazzling smile-- everytime I see it, it makes me smile, too

pretty contagious!

the way those photos make me feel. If I'm dreaming don't wake me up yet. It's too sweet for words.

And there's no point handing the rabid detractors free ammunition.

Some celebrities wear sunglasses because they want to be noticed! And some, sad to say, like other people will wear sunglasses at night so the condition of their pupils doesn't show. 'nuff said.

And they LOVE ALL America!

What they project!

eloquent perspective, DallasNE!

It certainly put us in temporaty Cheer!

Obama and Biden so tight, but sometimes I worry that something might happen to them both when they're together, and we may end up with an Orange President.

And I don't care how a person prays or thinks, it's really all the same. We don't always get what we ask, but it does make a difference. And if I didn't believe I'll live to see both our guys safely into a ripe old age, I couldn't bear it.
