What's the Note to the Prez Say?

On October 12, 2010, during a meeting in the Roosevelt Room, the President received a note from personal secretary Katie Johnson.

Anyone out there have the skilz to blow up the pic and read what it says?

The rest of you can guess and leave guesses in the comments.

  4. If I had the original, I could. This copy is highly pixelated. I can't make it out.

  6. Only in the movies can a blurry image be made sharp and clear. But the blur is data mixed with neighboring data and it cannot be unmixed. The 'sharpening' feature of some image manipulation software merely takes gray areas and arbitrarily assigns them to bright or dark. This works to sharpen edges of large objects, but there is no info to determine whether a particular pixel should have been made brighter or darker. Blur is a one way street.

  8. Portions of the memo appear to have been manipulated (wiped), particularly to the left and right of his hand.

    It says:

    "Sir - It is 11:05, time for senior advisors."

    On the bottom is printed "The President"
