I recognize one of them, but who's the guy on the right?

Babble on.

I had the opportunity to hear General Rick Hillier speak at that fixture of central-Canadian conservatism, The Albany Club, yesterday. What a special afternoon it turned out to be.

Babble off.

At 9:43 a.m., Babbling Brooks said...: Heh. I haven't such a...colourful...vehicle with which to kidnap this CDS, like I did last time. Besides, who could I get to revisit the part of my former partner in crime Dandu?

The abduction took place after the mess dinner, btw. Otherwise, I'm not sure we would have gotten away with it. I expect the liquid lubrication helped our cause.
