      Money equals power, too, but you have to look at it on a logarithmic scale.

          *sniffs the air*

          It’s definitely strong something.

          Nay! Tis merely the Illusion of Strength. For just as money is only useful in helping acquire the things you can buy, so-too does power only help you to sway those who are easily swayed.

        I was gonna say knowledge is power. Then I remembered Socrates saying something like “True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing”. That means that either true power is in knowing you are powerless or that knowledge is only power if you realize that your never going to get it. Or maybe I’m having a stroke. Kinda feels like a stroke. Then again, if I think I’m having a stroke, doesn’t that mean Ilm nort. Floor ninstacj dshl erhacds cldahle…………..

                Epic fail, indeed. Burnt to a crisp by my own fire. Oh, the shame!
                AND: Sorry, Psolo.

                  Oh, I don’t mind. It diverted attention away from the fact that my joke wasn’t really funny. Or even a joke.

                  I’m also incredibly happy that I resisted my stupid urge to write “First!”. Mr. Picard beat me by seconds.

    As much as I hate the father, their family interactions are adorable. They are a good example of a healthy dad/son relationship, world domination and all.

      I think I like Taro less than his daddoo. His Grace is sleazy…His Mini-Grace is a straight up arse.

      Even weasels have some family values. Honey badgers too.

      If I thought that they could be just a *bit* more ethical, I would shrug off that family’s eventual conquest of Gastonia. If you absolutely *must* have a king, find a bloodline which shows the needed traits for rulership. And don’t let them inbreed.

      Yep, this one brings back fond memories of time spent with my late father, when I was a child.

      It almost makes me regret killing him to consolidate my own power.

    And lastly, don’t tell everything in the first installment, save some good ideas for the sequels.
