Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 22, 2009
Transcript:
Man: Wonder why no one drinks martinis anymore...how do they get through the afternoon? Man 2: As you can see, sir, we have a problem. We can't survive if enrollment doesn't pick up. We've got to do something bold, something transformational! I'd like to propose that we swap jobs! Man: Excuse me? Man 2: You become dean, and I'll take over as president! It'll shake things up, bring Walden into the 21st century! Man: Are you mad? Man 2: No, I'm black - and we should be leveraging that! It's not about me personally. Man: It's not. Man 2: No - it's about paradigm shifts, about embracing a dynamic new vision of leadership! Man: Nice try. What else you got? Man 2: Well, I'm also part Cherokee. Either way, I'm a game-changer!

Dean of Walden? This is so good. He’s already a politician, he should be in Washington. XD

I like my martini with Tanqueray. Replace the vermouth with a splash of Laphroiag.

Tanqueray with Laphroaig… that’s just so WRONG. Adultery in two directions at once. Probably a killer hangover, too.

In the upper echelons of power, being black is a “game changer.”
