White Rose Bali
Will the White House Sommelier Be Required to Stock MD 20-20, Wild Irish Rose And Thunderbird?
If Obama becomes the President, will he fire the Sommelier and replace him with one of the bums over on J Street who would obviously have more experience with “Urban Wines?” Will Bali Hai and Annie Green Springs be served at state dinners? Will vintage be judged on the wine being produced during a good week or how well it aged on the truck?
If one wants to get into cocaine use, please read “Dreams From My Father” for a biographical recounting by the Senator of his drug and alcohol abuse. Also, if one wants to get into racism, there is sufficient quotes available in that book to make a pretty good case regarding who is the racist. His church is also claims to be “afrocentric,” a euphemism for “racist.”
That’s hilarious. Mad Dog!!! That crap is NASTY but it’ll f*ck you up. Can you see them all at a white house formals.. drinkin mad dog and boonesfarm. That’s great.
I love it!!

what colour and type of flowers for the bouquets at my wedding that wont clash with bm?
hi guys getting married in bali as some people know and we have chosen a beautiful marine aqua blue for the bmaids dresses however not sure about the colour theme for the flowers as i think blue flowers are look artificial and tacky i was thinking white roses and oriental lillies (pink) combined for my bouquet and white for the girls. im not wanting a colour that will clash can anyone one help me with this?
I think it would be nice if you carried a bouquet of pink and white and the girls carried pink bouquets. The pink will really look beautiful with the marine aqua.
You could use white and orlando roses. The orlando roses are a beautiful hot pink – I think that they would look nice together.
