Pic of the Day: “Josse, there’s an election with three candidates, so who do you vote for? No. 1: He is partially paralyzed from polio. He has hypertension. He’s anemic and suffers from an array of serious illnesses. He lies if it suits his purpose and consults astrologists on his politics. He cheats on his wife, chain-smokes, and drinks too many martinis. No. 2: He’s overweight, and he’s already lost three elections. He suffers from depression and has had two heart attacks. He’s impossible to work with and smokes cigars non-stop. And every night when he goes to bed, he drinks incredible amounts of champagne, cognac, port, whiskey, and adds two sleeping pills before dozing off. The last one, No. 3: He’s a highly decorated war hero. He treats women with respect. He loves animals, never smokes, and only has a beer on rare occasions. Josse, who do you vote for?” “The last one.” “The last one, No. 3? And the rest of you?” “Yes, No. 3.” “Oh boy! You just discarded Franklin D. Roosevelt… Winston L. Churchill… and thankfully you elected this guy.” “Hitler?” “Focus! It’s funny, but there’s a point to this, which is important and which I hope you’ll understand someday: the world is never as you expect.” (5th Anniversary)
