Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader has had a rather long day. In addition to his regular Maximum Leaderly activities he had to make an extra trip to theVillainettes’ School. He had a technician come by to check out the furnace in the Villainschloss - it wasn’t working before but is now. And of course, there was trick or treating.

After a busy day what better way to relax than to kick back and… read your favourite blogs. And one blog in particular deserves mention today. Buckethead of the Ministry of Minor Perfidy was the host for the Nineteenth Carnival of Music. Your Maximum Leader has diverse, but sometimes peculiar, musical tastes. He fears that his musical curiosity died somewhere around 1997 (right around the time that the first Villainette was born). So, fearing his grasp of popular culture and music has slipped, he finds a post like the Carnival of Music is a good thing. It broadens his horizons.

And if you don’t read the post, you may never get to learn about “Special Ed and the Short Bus.”

Carry on.
