Tomorrow, the President of the United States gives the State of the Union. I've got about sixteen hundred post-its on my desk reminding me to remind Josh to pick a guy. You might not know this, but while the rest of the government gets to watch in person, one lucky member in the line of succession has to wait outside the building. In case it blows

Would this be Donnatella Moss's trivia hour?

Someone has to think of the American People, Josh.

[mockspeople]

I think of the American people all the time!

[hastypingtodo]

Don't you mean you think for the American people?

[mockspeople]

Nobody ever said I can't do both.

[hastypingtodo]

That's true. You weren't elected.

[mockspeople]

You know, I could have been.

[hastypingtodo]

Really.

[mockspeople]

Sure; you could have been my vice president.

[hastypingtodo]

You think so?

[mockspeople]

No.

Until 1934, we called them Annual Reports. FDR coined the term "state of the union."

[mockspeople]

You do realize I'll probably be hearing all this from the president later on, right?

[hastypingtodo]

Isn't it my job to prepare you for everything you'll face in your day?

[mockspeople]

It is not your job to make me want to bash my head against the wall, though I have to say, I think that's what you're best at.

[hastypingtodo]

Just imagine if you put me in charge of Congress.
