Elegant quote (by Aubrey Menen) that JFK used |
|
President John F. Kennedy presented his friend, White House appointment secretary David Powers, with a silver beer mug for his birthday, April 26, 1963. These lines were inscribed on the mug:
There are three things which are real: God, human folly, and laughter. The first two are beyond our comprehension So we must do what we can with the third.

3. I wonder if we will ever have those things again??? Sad to see |
|
how far we've sunk, what with all the filthy, toxic, polluted waters of this "administration" swirling around us, and rising higher every day.
It's all we can do to keep ourselves from drowning in it.
:(

2. I agree with BrklynLiberal -- re intelligence in the White House... |
|
...as opposed to what we have in there now.
How nice it would be.
