Hitler as a Youth
"The other side of Adolf Hitler has been suddenly exposed by a letter the post office had lost all these years and suddenly delivered it to the address where he lived as a boy. The problem, they were decades too late.
"Hitler wanted to be an artist. He was a painter. He applied to attend art school and waited patiently for a letter of acceptance. That letter never came and Hitler’s dream career was never to be. Was this simply fate?
Very true.
We hereby inform you that our decision with respect to their recording and the Austro-Hungarian Academy of Fine arts Reported painting is ausgedallen positive.

Sounds like a rejection letter to me.

PS, Mr. Hitler, have you thought about starting WWII and, taking over the world?
Hitler actually had some passing talent as an artist. He made a living — albeit a meager one — selling paintings of architecture in Vienna for a brief period.
HA. I knew I should have waited. See my post. Google translate sucks.
I have been given The Gift.
Satan has told me what to do.
Adolf, you are in, but your work is crap,
I used Bing translate which is much better plus my own knowledge of German.
K.U.K Academy of Fine Arts

In regards to: Your application, Number 54/1907
Dear Mr. Adolf Hitler,
You suck. Have you given any thought towards becoming a despot and killing millions? You might be better at this than art.

ROFLMAO!!!
Way better than I can do. I can manage stick figures.
Sounds like a polite rejection letter to me.
Yeah, it wasn't exactly a love letter. I believe he'd already been rejected once, though.
I have studied Hitler a little, read a couple of good histories and biographies.
He was a brilliant man. He did great evil, but he was brilliant, just as Alexander, Ghengis Khan, Mao Ze Dong, and Mohammed were brilliant, but did great evil.
It is nearly impossible for an average or mediocre man to do great evil.
I'm doing my best, dang it! ;-)
Kind of like the Grecian columns Obama had..yuk.
The kicker sentence is
“The perfect randomness that your work radiates, makes us momentarily doubt that you are the right person to expand your horizons at our academy.”
That’s a better translation. It’s a nice rejection notice.
Barry?
Barry Soetero?
