10. That "I didn't do it" look is SOP for cats
I have a blue cat myself and they are experts at deflecting blame. They also blend into many backgrounds and can be impossible to find!

12. Oh, he makes NO apologies......
... for ANYTHING. "Yeah, I broke your stupid Democrat graven image! What of it lady!"

His name is Tucker .... sometimes I think he's Cheney's demon spawn. :)

.... but he's just soft and fuzzy! lol

11. I went to the Presidents Park website...
Pretty interesting place, located in Lead SD and featuring:

Artist David Adickes, a world renowned sculptor began work on a model of president-elect Barack Obama’s head earlier this month. The multi-talented artist has filled two presidents’ parks with a complete set of 43 presidential heads over the past 50 years.
