hopes she doesn't go in room 237

Nah. It'll be more like 227.

How about 100 years ago?

237 is the room from The Shining (new window) that was haunted.

And those girls better learn how to clean up after their pet.

Still, that's a pretty cool list of perks.

Oh goodness, those two little girls are adorable. If Obama takes two terms they will be grown when he leaves office, how wierd is that?

No, I don't wonder, because I've seen a little movie starring Sinbad called First Kid.

No, I have never wondered that.

next question.

No, I have not wondered about this, but I bet it sucks ass.

Lonestar: Ok, ill bite, whats in room 237?

It's the room where Dick Cheney killed a man, just to watch him die.

Some say it's haunted....

/For example, we all say that.

it sounds pretty sweet to me. they're gonna be little princesses.

hopefully by the end of Obama's 2nd term Malia isn't falling down drunk at bars like SOME presidential daughters I know.

Egalitarian: it sounds pretty sweet to me. they're gonna be little princesses.

Um, no. There is no royalty in this country. It's scary the way America is slowly beginning to worship the President and his administration. Let's remember: they work for us.

I have always wondered what it would be like to have an adult in the White House. Let's hope Barry shows us.

I was educated about this matter in the underrated 1996 Sinbad vehicle, First Kid (new window).

Damn. I got beaten to the Sinbad references twice over. :/

/anyone remember the sad "internet chat" from that movie?

// is still waiting for those awsome virtual reality games at his local mall.

ShankatsuForte: Damn. I got beaten to the Sinbad references twice over. :/

/anyone remember the sad "internet chat" from that movie?

Yeah man, mongoose 12 and viper something-or-other. Like the epic battle between a snake and a mongoose. It's a shame that the subtlety of that movie's writing was lost on its target audience.

HAY DID SOMEONE SAY SINBAD YET?!?

deltabourne: Um, no. There is no royalty in this country. It's scary the way America is slowly beginning to worship the President and his administration. Let's remember: they work for us.

BEGINNING?? Surely you jest!

The lack of a king has been obvious in the "you must defer to the President" pseudo-royalty BS for decades now at least.

Kinda like that stupid frankie munez Muneiz Fark it, the kid from malcom in the middle's movie called big liar where the character names are derived from the "Boy who cried wolf" ?

Came here for Sinbad, left with a smile on my face.

Well, we've been doing so for some time - but I agree, the idea of a "first lady" and "first family" is clearly a nod towards royalty. Let's just ignore Obama's family (as we should have ignored Bush and Clinton's families) and focus on Obama, or better yet, Obama's policies.

/That said, I can haz indoor bowling alley?

If you were TR's kids, pretty f'n sweet.

On the one hand, yes, there are many perks. On the other hand, I can see being a kid in the White House being a drag.

I can just imagine those girls being told not to touch anything because everything is an antique. You can't go to certain parts of the White House because they are closed off or tourists are constantly coming in and out and that's dangerous. Having the Secret Service always by your side, never a moment alone. Constantly being told to be on your best behavior because you represent your parents. Plus, you don't want the foreign ambassadors thinking that American kids are brats. You need to get security clearance every time you want to bring a friend over. And then there are the rumors of your house being haunted. It's 3 in the morning and you are going down the hall for a glass of water and there's the ghost of Lincoln roaming the halls.

Ugh. No thank you.

missmez: Oh goodness, those two little girls are adorable. If Obama takes two terms they will be grown when he leaves office, how wierd is that?

Um...Chelsea, hello.

First I read that as Waffle House so I thought it was cool...

Second wasn't their a Sinbad movie about this stuff?

In b4 Sinbad movie lol

bgrainger: Second wasn't their a Sinbad movie about this stuff?

Yes they're was a Sinbad movie, Your right.

bicentennialman: If you were TR's kids, pretty f'n sweet.

Subtle. 9/10.

/Me likey.

"Ever wondered what it would be like to be a kid living in the White House?"

I understand that being a kid in the White House makes people say "Why is __(girl's name)__ so ugly? Because she was sired by Janet Reno" jokes. Try inserting a random girl's name into the blank like, for example, "Chelsea Clinton". You might notice, ten years later, having a serious case of amnesia about the whole ordeal of teasing a teenage girl on her appearance.

deltabourne: It's scary the way America is slowly beginning to worship the President and his administration

Beginning? The transformation of the Presidency from constitutional officer to national demi-god has been going on for at least a century. Really, it's only a matter of time before we can't turn our back while in the Presidential Presence.

Julieahni: Nah. It'll be more like 227.

What about Room 429?

Dancin_In_Anson: bicentennialman: If you were TR's kids, pretty f'n sweet.

See my post above.

Indeed. I'm reading other stories about 'em right now. The book DIA posted might need to have a looksee if it's any good.

...and while they're at it, they need to stay out of room 1408.

It's very beautiful and very cold, and you're not allowed to touch anything?

RevMercutio: The book DIA posted might need to have a looksee if it's any good.

My Dad bought that for me in the 70's when I was a kid as his Dad did for him in the 30's. It's a fun book and an easy read.

Funk Brothers: Came here for Sinbad, left with a smile on my face.

That's probably the first and last time that sentence has ever been uttered.

It'd probably be pretty neat at first; then probably more than a little lonely. They'd be constantly surrounded by Secret Service and other adults; they probably won't have much social contact with people their age as a result.

For the sake of Obama's children; I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

mferris: ...and while they're at it, they need to stay out of room 1408.

And Room 101...oh yeah, I forgot, that's over at Langley.

Sinbad.

voodoochild It's very beautiful and very cold, and you're not allowed to touch anything?

Better than the Sinbad reference.

/your post qualifies
//my response too
///scatman too

I read a book awhile back, can't remember the title, written by a former WH staf member who had served as far back as Eisenhower. Really interesting.

About kids in the WH, I remember a few things. David Eisenhower was apparently dumb as a stump, Julie Nixon was a very sweet girl, Amy Carter was an absolutely horrid spoiled brat who was universally despised among staffers, and Chelsea Clinton was genuinely nice, a good person, unaffected by the pomp, and universally loved by the staffers.

I found it interesting.

Nah. It'll be more like 227.

i lol'd

VictoryCabal: Julieahni: Nah. It'll be more like 227.

More importantly, what about Room 222?
