Does my avatar make me look fat?

1. Harry would threaten to kick your ass

I read he was a gangmember.

[CubsFan1982]

2. He was small, but a squirrely little fighter.

Or so I've heard. :D

[JohnKleeb]

4. He had a cursing problem too

He looks like a nerdy guy but apparently he had an attiude, I read he called a washington post reviewer who dissed his daughter's piano performance, an asshole or son of bitch or something.

7. Truman's Letter to the Music Critic

From the Truman Library website: http://www.trumanlibrary.org/trivia/letter.htm

In response to Washington Post Music Critic Paul Hume's December 6, 1950, review of Margaret Truman's singing performance at Constitution Hall, stating,

"Miss Truman is a unique American phenomenon with a pleasant voice of little size and fair quality … (she) cannot sing very well … is flat a good deal of the time—more last night than at any time we have heard her in past years … has not improved in the years we have heard her … (and) still cannot sing with anything approaching professional finish."

President Truman responded with the following letter to Hume:

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

Dec. 6, 1950

Mr. Hume:

I've just read your lousy review of Margaret's concert. I've come to the conclusion that you are an "eight ulcer man on four ulcer pay."

It seems to me that you are a frustrated old man who wishes he could have been successful. When you write such poppy-cock as was in the back section of the paper you work for it shows conclusively that you're off the beam and at least four of your ulcers are at work.

Some day I hope to meet you. When that happens you'll need a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below!

(Westbrook) Pegler (syndicated gossip columnist), a gutter snipe, is a gentleman alongside you. I hope you'll accept that statement as a worse insult than a reflection on your ancestry.

H.S.T.

8. You could use that adjective.

Others around campus have used "annoying", "loud", "obnoxious", and "jerk" to describe me. Then again, those have been used mostly by the College Republicans. :D

[JohnKleeb]

9. college republicans are mostly douchenasals anyhow

[davsand]

10. Enjoy the high praise!!!

I count it a good day when I can annoy ANY Republican--college or geriatric!

11. It's always fun to piss off a freeper.

Especially dumb freepers like our school's College Republicans. :D
