aww

The bookstall outside my subway stop is selling eight or ten different Barack Obama calendars. I think it's adorable that people are so excited about Obama they want him on a calendar.

I was buying a map of the USA from the stall, so I asked the owner, just for kicks, whether he'd ever seen a George Bush calendar. He gave me this omg-you-are-kidding-right look, and explained carefully that perhaps Bush might appear on a calendar of past presidents, but he didn't think there would be much demand for a calendar with pictures of Bush himself. ::snorts::

I <3 the bookstall guy; if you are getting off the 1 train at 231st St, buy something from him, he's cool.
