Boutros Boutros-Ghali, an Egyptian politician and diplomat, served as Secretary-General of the United Nations from 1992 to 1996. He died on February 16th at the age of 93. When I heard about his death, I couldn't help but flash back to a classic Seinfeld moment...

Yes, I think of a Jerry Seinfeld wisecrack about a topless woman when I hear the name Boutros Boutros-Ghali. That scene appears in the 1994 Seinfeld episode called "The Hamptons". It's the same episode where George suffers from "shrinkage" after being in the pool. Oh, what great stuff! Boutros, your death might not be a laughing matter... but it did remind me of something truly hilarious.
