  1. The classic picture of the great man, hands on hipbones, shoulders thrust forward, as if to proclaim to all that: "I'm a little teapot, Short and stout, I'm quite a loony, Here's my best pout. When I get all cranked up, Hear me shout, "The trains run on time! And now get out!" I'll let myself out. I gotta catch a Storch. I don' wan' 'em to leave without me. And a point about creduilty in high office: If you can see white all around someone's eyes, be attentive: he or she (or gender nonspecific) might be having a seizure or psychotic episode. Or he/she might be so methed up he or she can't close them anymore. You only see people like that in Anime, where the artists have no brief to provide accurate representations of the human form. Even there, they do it to make a point, not suggest anyone really looks like that. Except Il Duce. He breaks all the rules . . . especially those regarding editorial accuracy, honor among thieves, and Italia's role in the Great War*. *Which see. The Great War (another Indy and team project) covers Italian hopes and dreams, and nightmares, during the war years very well.
