    Default Capital Punishment

    Harry S Truman (US president 1945-1952):
    "My choice early in life was either to be a piano player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there’s hardly any difference."


    After he left the White House, Truman was invited to visit San Francisco shipping mogul George Killion. When his driver got lost, Truman rang the doorbell of a nearby house and asked for directions. The homeowner couldn’t help him. “I hope I’m not hurting your feelings,” he said, “but you look exactly like that old s.o.b. Harry Truman.”

    “I hope I’m not hurting your feelings either,” responded Truman, “but I am that s.o.b.”
    Of course truth is stranger than fiction.
    Fiction has to make sense. - Mark Twain

    Like when Rooseveldt was visiting a farm and started talking about manure. One of the flacks told Elanore she should try to get him to say 'fertiliser' rather than 'manure'.
    Said the 1st lady "You don't know how much trouble I had getting him to call it manure."
