Another Chaïm

Reminds me of the other Chaïm, used by Roald Dahl in his short called *Skin*:

Roald Dahl Centenary

| Old man Drioli is down and out on the streets of Paris, when he sees a painting of trees by his Kalmuck, Chaïm Soutine, in a posh artist's gallery. That reminds him of the time when the Kalmuck had tattooed a portrait of Drioli's wife on his (Drioli's) back. Drioli runs into the gallery shouting that he too has a painting by the same artist. With Dahl, there's only one way the story can end
