Grasping At Straws

In case you hadn't noticed, I'm kind of a whore for attention. "Whore" is maybe too strong a word. Perhaps I'm just slutty for attention. Whatever the case may be, I used to get a lot of traffic to my blog because of my Senior Pics satire site. But I had to take that down for legal reasons. Then I got a lot of attention for the Falling Bush screensaver. But that cat is almost out of office and I'm beginning to see that candle dimming. So in not-so-quiet desperation, and as a lame attempt to keep my new readership rates up for at least another four years, I've created Falling Obama:

I tried to dress him in the preferred attire from his "Barry" days:

Initially I had decked him out with an afro and everything, but for some reason I was afraid that people would think I was trying to make him look like a pimp and accuse me of racism or something, so I wussed out. And don't worry, I plan on coming up with something new and brilliant to quench my irrational thirst for attention, too. Any day now.

If you think that is creepy, you should see what what I did with McCain.

'Whore for attention' is never too strong a phrase for you Dan, don't sell yourself short, hehe. We love you all the more for it!

I think you should've given Obama at least a chance to get into office & prove himself before you did the 'Falling Obama'. W at least has earned his falling status.

I think you should do the reverse with Obama- Have him sailing upwards...it would be MUCH more fitting.

I wonder what would happen if you programmed in "the bottom." What is at the end of these falls? Is it a mythic place people claim to have found after hours of making McCain,Obama et cetera fall?
