    BTW,

    I'm a teatotaler. Call it artistic license.

    "Perhaps I stabbed our Savior
    In His sacred helpless side.
    Yet I've called His name in blessing
    When in after times I died.

    Through the travail of the ages
    Midst the pomp and toil of war
    Have I fought and strove and perished
    Countless times upon this star.

    I have sinned and I have suffered
    Played the hero and the knave
    Fought for belly, shame or country
    And for each have found a grave.

    So as through a glass and darkly
    The age long strife I see
    Where I fought in many guises,
    Many names - but always me.

    So forever in the future
    Shall I battle as of yore,
    Dying to be born a fighter
    But to die again once more."

    While the status of the King is being debated by some, it's good to know that our own Earl of Watts is busy restoring nature back to its proper place after the recent disruptions down South.



    I say Earl, but he may have been promoted to Duke. I'm not sure.

    Some would say, why wouldn't Lightman put the cat on top of the pole.

    I wouldn't say that.
    Some would.

    I can't support him either... can't even spell THRONE correctly. Bet he hasn't even crowned yet.
