I saw these women walking together outside of church one saturday afternoon and thought, 'oh, that's sweet. they all look the same.'
i then looked down and realized that christiane and i were, quite coincidentally, wearing strikingly similar ensembles. note the odd color selection AND the use of head scarves. we laughed, then insisted that the moment be photographed.

on another random note, how many of you knew that President #26 - the one whose surname is 'Taft' - was the heaviest president ever? He weighed in around 322 lbs and got stuck in his bathtub on his inauguration day. Several assistants had to be called in to unstick him. This resulted in him getting a new, gigantic bathtub (7ft long, 4ft wide), one big enough to comfortably fit 4 reasonably sized adult male humanoids. cool, eh?
