It's not quite the George Bushes Christmas portrait, but...

    Cate's cute but she wouldn't be so hot if she'd been wearing pants instead.

    Cancer prevents you from looking into a camera?

    Not sure. Never had cancer. But it might prevent you from, say, looking your best, leaving you open to pot shots like "old lady" from hit and run assholes like yourself.

    Why don't you run along and start another thread about how Kareem Abdul-Jabar wants to eat my children.

    Since you aren't sure, I'll tell you. Cancer doesn't prevent you from looking into the camera.

    Whoever gave the go for this to be the official family portrait should be fired. Poor decision by the family head to let this one go thru, if in fact this isn't some spoof. Two out of the five couldn't even look into the camera, not even including the Wal-Mart chastising young boy. JC Penney's would have done a better job, hell, this place would have done a better job.

    Of course, Poin, it could have been that she was looking at her two sons instead of the camera. I mean, parents tend to do that. Some of the best shots of my son and I involve us not looking at the camera, but at each other.

    That being said, it makes me wonder if you're a parent.

    It's not that his wife looks too old. It's that he looks freakishly young. Assuming Edwards' wife is the same age as Edwards, she is 53. That seems about right. Do you look at Edwards and think he's 53, though?

    Ragu, some people photograph younger than others. And some people take longer to age.

    Look at me. :)

    Yeah, at first glance you'd figure "early to mid-forties"

    Two sons? If she's got two sons, then this is really some news. Or a REALLY bad picture.

    Edwards looks like he could be going to his 15 year college reunion... and be young-looking for that crowd.

    There's nothing wrong with that photo, for God's sake.

    Two pages on a Christmas card?

    Really?
