Speaker Straus invited the press corps to the speaker's capitol apartment this morning, took wide-ranging questions on everything from committee assignments to Milton Rister to UTIMCO, then hung around and mingled among the corps over breakfast tacos and fruit. (Straus said he liked the blueberries.)

Highlights: Lots of gold. All stainless steel appliances. Photos of nine-year-old Joe Straus wearing a clip on tie. I'll put a full slideshow up later this morning.

But before we left, one of the TV photogs accidentally broke a chandelier. Not sure if there's going to be another invite.

Ironically, a book called "Staying Power" sits on the bookshelf.
