Waxing Poetic

Pssst! He's not real!

I'm sorry, there is just something extremely creepy about making wax replicas of people. I'm sure that based on the popularity of Madame Tussaud's museums all over the world I can safely assume that I am not in the majority with this opinion.

Nevertheless, Michelle Obama's replica joined Barack's in the Washington museum and the visitors seem to have really warmed up to them. Hopefully, not too much or they'll melt.

Gift Exchange at the Palace

The Obamas took some time out of their busy day to stop by and visit Queen Elizabeth II. Personally, I had no idea she was so short.

They gave her an iPod with video on it of her 2007 visit to the colonies. She gave them what she gives all visiting dignitaries ~ a framed picture of herself.

And there she is with that handbag again! What in the hell is she doing wandering around Buckingham Palace with that friggin' purse on her arm?

I think she's channeling Sophia Petrillo.
