    I wonder if this 22-pound lobster (named Bubba) would be big
    enough for MOO's mid-day snack:

    No matter how elegant the venue, the ever-gauche MOO will reach across the table and pick her teeth.

  6. It looks as if Bo is riding a girl's bike and Mo is riding a boy's bike. Speaks volumes.

  7. MOTUS:

    Granny Jan requested a Photoshop (TM) yesterday...here it is.

    Think you might enjoy it too?

  8. Listening to Born to Be wild and looking at the first picture of BO on the bike somehow reminded me of Dukakis riding a military tank during his campaign in the 80s.

  9. NICE WORK, RPFS!
    Loves the training wheels! And pink shirt! Awesome!

  10. Now that's just, plain ... Sa-ha-ha-weet!

  11. Yup, butt we already knew who wears the pants on this team.

    BTW, Gerard has a nice collection of posts regardin' the bike ride, headlined by moi,  in his sidebar "Thinkin' Right" today.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Yes he does. And he's got those ginormous ears to substitute for the headphones in the helmet.

    And clarice made the comparison a couple days ago.

  13. At least Obama ain't wearin' no mom jeans - 'cuz no self respectin' momma I know would be seen in those high waisted, poochy-butt horrors. (Okay, I'm just guessin' these don't fit any better than the ones he wore to play putt putt.)

  14. Thank you, MOTUS and Bijou!

    I appreciated Gran's request, cuz I figured after I did this very early this AM, it would be right up her alley!

    The ever-gauche MOO, Queen of Gluttony and
    Empress of No Manners,
    will pick her teeth and reach across the table for MO-MO butter.

  17. Lobsters live in fear when MOO comes to Massachusetts.  Not one of them is safe.  At least they finally did a family activity with the bikin' photo op.

  21. Wow!  Here's a mystery indeed!  A woman called in to Laura Ingraham's show to take her to task for criticizing MOO's desserts and Barry's golf swing.  Was it MOO's mom?  (3:04 in)

    The MOO ACORN doesn't fall far from the tree.

  23. Apparently putting any number of pieces of clothing together and insisting it is an outfit is the style now.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Right you are. Clarice did mention the Weekly Standard article that compares BO and Dukakis prowess.
    The pictures are the proof of it. 
    BTW Doofus picture: priceless

    Michelle Antoinette is a gourmand. She thinks she is a gourmet but she is wrong.

    gourmand (coutesy dictionary.com): "a person who is fond of good eating, often indiscriminatingly and to excess"

    In other words, MOO is a hog who stuffs herself.

  33. What a clever way to dispell the rumors that BO is a weak, girly-man by putting him on a girl's bike wearing a lame helmet!  Genius.

    ReplyDelete
  34. oops,  "wearin' a lame helmet".  my bad

  35. MO-MO is not only uber-fashionable whilst recreating, she's practical too!

    Wearing a couple of spare tires around her waist is genius!

  36. The grownups are wearing helmets, while the children are NOT.
    Wrong on so many levels...

    I give her props for riding a bike, even though she has a hangoverl

  38. I saw a pic later with O on a boy's blue bike. Wonder when it was shopped - to looks like a girl's or a boy's?

    Loved your sidebar.

  39. Cape Cod Times:
    But for others in the area, Michelle Obama's trip to Main Street in Edgartown was more hindrance than inspiration.
    Secret Service agents closed down the road while the first lady lunched, disappointing bystanders and retailers alike.
    The owner of another women's clothing boutique, who asked not to be identified, said the visit to town actually caused her businesses to lose money. Michelle Obama did not shop at any of the nearby stores, she said. And since the road was closed to visitors, potential shoppers were excluded for the afternoon, too, she said.
    "We even had a sign in the window," the retailer said. "But she didn't shop, she didn't go down the street."

  46. Think of Erkel on a bike--that's Barry.

    By the way, doesn't anyone around these people know how to ride a bike? Why doesn't someone (since obviously MO/BO don't know themselves) tell these dips to PUT UP THE SEAT on their bikes? They're both tall people, and the seat is in the lowest position. Ridiculous. It just shows that this wasn't about riding a bike; rather, it was all about the Photo-Op. Bleh.
