The White House released this official photo of a performer named John Cassidy doing a "balloon act" in the White House's Diplomatic Reception Room while First Lady Michelle Obama watches in amusement/horror.

This picture is so good it deserves a caption. So please, put your suggestions in the comments. We'll kick it off with something easy: "Health-crazed First Lady tests new soon-to-be-mandated exercise balloon suits." Now you go!
