MS. PERINO: Ann.

Q Hi. According to a release from Laura Bush's office this morning, there's going to be a set of George W. Bush state china. Any idea why it's being delivered two weeks before he leaves office?

MS. PERINO: No time like the present. (Laughter.) I think that it just took a while for them to figure out the design that they wanted. Then it was produced and it has arrived at the White House. And so Mrs. Bush will be happy to share that with everybody soon.

Q Do you know anything about it or why they're doing -- because not every President does this kind of thing.

MS. PERINO: I haven't seen it yet and I'll let her talk about that. I'll see if I can get some more information. I just know that it has arrived.

Q Is it a good expenditure for an administration when the economy is in the kind of state it is?

MS. PERINO: I think that it was probably done within the White House budget, but we'll check for you.

Q Got pictures of them? What does it look like?

MS. PERINO: I'll check with Mrs. Bush's office. I just -- I haven't had the pleasure of seeing it yet.

Q Do you know those Obama plates you see on television? (Laughter.)

Q Yes, I know, I'm wondering. (Laughter.)
