Why oh why would Clinton pick a black painter whose body of work includes virtually only portraits of famous black folks, i.e. the Cosby's etc. I mean if you want a portrait of a child you pick a child portraitist, a pet-a pet portraitist, etc. Maybe Billy Jeff was hoping he would look more black in his portrait-he is the first black Prez donchaknow.
I too got the feeling that he was not overjoyed with his portrait. This is the closest close-up I found. Maybe someone else has a better one...
SAFETY BULLETIN!!!!!
NEW CARJACKING SCHEME....
Imagine: You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. Then you lock all your doors, start the engine and shift into REVERSE. You look into the rear-view mirror to back out of your parking space and notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window.
So, you shift into PARK, unlock your doors and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off!!
Your engine was running, your purse is in the car and they practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.
Just drive away and remove the paper that is stuck to your window later, and be thankful that you read this. Please pass it along.
Where do you suppose Gary (can't rememeber his last name) the White Usher will hang them? :-) I can hear the howling now as WH employees walk past Old Crusty (muttering under their breath, "that damn old crust is goning to haunt us FOREVER!!").
Now we know and knowing's half the battle...
