Harper At The G-8

G-8, G-20...who cares? When you gotta go, you gotta go.

(PS. Who'd have thought I would be able to use the same gag twice in one year?)

Obama Meets Harper At The Summit Of The Americas

The two chatted in a hotel service corridor as they moved between meetings.

"It's down the stairs, 2nd door on your right. And its more ancient than my African Grammy, so you might have to flush twice. Okay Steve?"

"How clean is it?"

"I'm from Chicago, man, I've seen worse."

The Prime Minister Shall Be Otherwise Engaged

One of the surprises in arrangements for the summit is the absence of Canada's prime minister, Stephen Harper, from those expected to address the ceremonial opening session.

One day this joke will stop being funny. Until then...

PS. Penlan notes in the comments that Harper will be the warm-up act for Hugo Chavez at the plenary session beginning on Saturday morning (April 18).
