OMG!!!! YOU GOT YOUR PICTURE WITH PRESIDENT ALLSTATE!!!!!

Er, the late former President Allstate, that is. How embarrassing. :-[

*WAVES at Dennis Haysbert!!!*

judi, HOW COOL!!

Looks like Judi is in good hands.

Dude is way tall! Very cool, judi - say hi to him from all of us out here in blogland. :)

judi, you didn't shoot him in the thigh, did you?

JUDI!!! That is way way WAY awesome!

judi - I think maybe this makes you cooler than Chloe. Almost. ;)

*idly wonders if Dennis Haysbert ever frequents this blog*

Obama sure has aged a lot in just two days though.

Yay judi! Tell him we miss him on 24!

Is he really that tall or is Judi vertically challenged?

He can lower my deductible any time!

Say, didn't he have an old white guy as vice president who tried to remove him from office, aided and abetted by a turncoat chief of staff? Hmmmm...

Who you calling "old"?

Judi, looks like you established a very close perimeter...

LOL that's great! But didn't Morgan Freeman beat him out as first? ;)

yea judi! MAN is he tall or what?

he is very tall.

Rayne, we'd have had a psychic simul if I hadn't gone for the link!

So, I have to know.... does he have any clue that Dave blogs about 24?

Judi, is he tickling you ???
That's a great photo - he looks like such a nice guy.
Lucky Judi - I'm a little green with envy over here !

judi looks a little bit more than happy to see him! I can't blame her for that.

Judi, that is too cool.

We've been saying for weeks that President Allstate definitely went a long way (along with Morgan Freeman) to accustom America to having a black President.

Actually, some geezers may remember that James Earl Jones really paved the way.

Where are judi's hands?

judi, could you please ask him to stop texting me already?

Oh, that President.

Never mind.

:)

WE HAVE A BLACK PRESIDENT?!

Breathe into this, Mike.

*hands Mike a brown paper bag*

That...is awesome! I mean, wow...that's really cool! :)

I'm jealous!

Wow, cool, judi. I bet his voice rumbled right down to your tippy toes.

judi was clearly forewarned of the occasion - she's wearing a pretty dress AND a very corporate-looking blazer. NTTAWWT.

Ahhh. Much better. Thank you.

Judi!!! Did he ask you to be his running mate??

Why not!? I mean, you're as qualified as Palin!

judi was clearly forewarned of the occasion - she's wearing a pretty dress AND a very corporate-looking blazer. NTTAWWT.

Hey, the PRESIDENT was coming!! You HAVE to dress up!!

Judi's more qualified. She's been to other countries!

Where are his good hands and why are you smiling?

NO WAY!!! OMG DAVID PALMER IS BACK FROM THE DEAD!!!

Luckeeeee!

Let it never be forgotten that President Allstate hit the game tying home run in the Cleveland Indians surprise win over the hated New York Yankees (sorry Annie & El) in 1988 in a one game playoff. Why he never made "Wild Thing" Ricky Vaughn Chief of Staff baffles me to this day.

Awesome!

Mr. President, it has been an honor to serve as one of your policyholders. You don't happen to offer fashion disaster insurance, do you?

Judi, you look far too happy. Good for you!

President Allstate?

Elon, Dennis played Senator/President David Palmer on 24 from Day 1 until he was sent to Heaven by a sniper on Day 5. This was a good career move because it allowed his ghost to return to Fox, and perform amazing feats of suspended animation and walk around suddenly frozen traffic on the highway (probably establishing a perimeter for impending accidents), to sell insurance for Allstate.

Why do people insist on using "an" to precede "historic"? Correct grammar is "a historic" not "an historic".

sigh.
I'm so very very jealous. I'm so jealous.
I LOVE YOU PRESIDENT ALLSTATE! YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY PRESIDENT!
