Me there is and can only ever be One:  The Deposed King

The Deposed King

Well, I miss the old days, with my big red pointy hat and menacing black cart pulled by red-eyed horses with flaming hooves.  I was a pretty damn good Lord High Inquisitor!  People just have no respect for tradition any more.  They don't even through salt at me and hide their kids when I come around.  And I get practically no groveling. 

*sigh*

The Deposed King

'Who wants to live forever?' That's a weird theme song for a king, deposed or otherwise;-)

Well, I do low pretty well at least.

You're too tall for that, Stilts.

Monarchs, actors, and authors all require certain levels of ego. It's required, to put yourself in a position where people can take potshots at you, or your work. When you succeed, it becomes easy to want to live forever, especially when you're having a whole lot of fun.

How about: "Booooorn to be kiiiiiiiiings, princes of the universe!"
or :"I am the one, the only one! I am the god of Kingdom come! Gimme the Prize!"

I like the sounds of this, Mickey.
Does it cost to join?
I'm not on FB either - don't like it much at all.
Don't know whether that makes me a Luddite or just cranky.

[PilgrimDan]

Neither... just sensible.

[Mickey Finn]

Ack, sorry. My bad on not checking this thread. There's a yearly fee.

New President is Michael Burnstein, old hand at these things.
I barely use FB. I had to join for another group.
