The President had a very busy day. He spoke at a signing ceremony for the first Homeland Security funding bill (for 2004); met with White House General Counsel Alberto R. Gonzales, Chief of Staff Andrew Card, and Homeland Security Advisor John Gordon; Pakistan's Prime Minister Mir Zafarullah Khan Jamali, who expressed cooperation in the the war on terrorism and a mutual desire to deepen bilateral relations; and NASA administrators, and space crew, the latter being members of the International Space Station crew 6.
He met with Colombia's President Alvaro Uribe in the Oval Office to discuss security issues, and also toured a Davenport, Iowa, Sears manufacturing plant that makes farm equipment seats.
Laura Bush gave television and press interviews; spoke at a book festival organized by Mrs. Putin that was modeled on Mrs. Bush's book fairs in the US; and went to the Bolshoi Theater with Mrs. Putin, Mrs. Kocharian of Armenia, and Mrs. Pyruanov of Bulgaria, to see Don Quixote.
He said that each store only gets 15 of them, and that they're selling fast. He thought they would be worth at least $100 some day.
GOOD investment! Go get one! :o)
BTW, IT'S SNOWING HERE!!!!!
The first part of your report was so detailed we could just imagine all of it. You can believe that we are eagerly looking forward to the really important parts tomorrow night .... and especially if they are accompanied by pictures!
Even George Bush Drives Fast!
George Bush Does Fly Airplanes!
Too bad it's too late for my classes this semester! (I teach basics to college students).
Can I steal them from you for next semester???
I'm not sure, but I don't think they're still available online.
The toy store guy said the ones at KB...or is it KayBee? are a better quality than the ones online (more detailed).

OK......that's a perfect ending!
Hope that helps you out! Good night, homemom! :o)
