The 22nd Ammendment is Jealousy in Law

While the less hot George Washington set the precedent for term limits (2), FDR didn't care about that because he was too busy:

a) bringing our great nation out of depression
b) upholding the strong values of the blue-blooded New York Aristocracy with Eleanor, as well as his mistress(es?).
c) looking good.

Where can you find time to regulate the banks, get tons of inspiring murals painted AND be the nation's best looking president? Not in two terms. Thanks for gracing us with your rakish good looks for FOUR TERMS, FDR!

Dear John Updike

Every single character in John Updikes oeuvre is having an affair! All the women are drinking gin and following their married neighbors to the upstairs bathrooms; all married couples are frankly discussing their partner's lovers/fake-lovers/red-herrings/blatant assignation.

While we assume its the emotional void of shrunken masculinity rubbing elbows with America's discomfort with women's lib, its actually because young John Updike was so good-looking in an Adrian Brody way that he was the home-wrecker for every house in his neighborhood.

Its important to keep your eyes open at all times, even pointed towards the olden days.
Find beauty everywhere, even in your history textbooks. Or when watching A&E poets documentaries. Ergo, as of late we are all attracted posthumously to prize-winning poet (and manic-depressive) Robert Lowell. The strain of madness, the self-conscious awareness of his own youthful indiscretions, best friendship with noted lesbian Elizabeth Bishop, and elegiac, ironic poetry all add up to a hotness quotient. Blue-blood Bostonian roots (and a HOT batch of family issues) and multiple marriages also factors of attraction.

ROBERT LOWELL, I WANNA GO TO THE NEW YORK SCHOOL WITH YOU!
