About Mr. Gică Insanity, and Dorel Vasilescu

Some people think they’re Einstein and they’re crazy. Some think they’re Napoleon and they’re crazier. And others think they’re made of glass and they’re careful not to crack, and others think they’re made of paper and they’re careful not to burn.

Mr. Gică is the world’s greatest barber.

Some people think they’re doctors, some inventors, and some colonels. And they all are careful to keep their stethoscopes on their neck

and their screwdrivers in their pocket and their marked maps under their arm. Rarely does one think he’s Dorel Vasilescu.
