   Frank J. Lhota to All   
   President Obama's gift to Prime Minister   
   06 Mar 09 20:25:38   
   
   From: FrankLho.NOSPAM@rcn.com   
      
   When British Prime Minister Gordon Brown visited the White House, he   
   brought his U.S. counterpart two particularly fine gifts: a desk carved   
   from the historic anti-slave ship, HMS Resolute, and a first edition of   
   the seven-volume biography of Churchill by Sir Martin Gilbert.   
      
   In return, the new U.S. President gave Brown a DVD set of 25 classic   
   American Films. I have two questions about this gift:   
      
   1.	Did Obama remember to make sure that the DVD's were region 2?   
   2.	Were any of the 25 films in the set shown on MST3K? I wonder what   
   impact "Catalina Caper" or "Hobgoblins" would have on international   
   relations.
