Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader doesn’t really have anything well-formulated in his mind upon which to opine. (Although that hasn’t stopped him in the past… Ba-da-dum!)

When your Maximum Leader married his lovely wife, Mrs Villain, he was exposed to a little family tradition of hers. Every 1st of the month she would gleefully exclaim to him the single word “Rabbit!” as soon as she awoke. It is a little competition in fact. After she “Rabbits” your Maximum Leader she then goes and “Rabbits” the kids. Then she gets on the phone and “Rabbits” her parents and sister. During the summer months she will often call her aunt and put the “Rabbit” throwdown on her as well.

Your Maximum Leader never fully understood why she and her whole family did this. They said it was an “old Scottish tradition” in her family. Your Maximum Leader’s family is of Scottish extraction as well, but he never recalled anyone doing this. Well a few months ago while watching Craig Ferguson’s Late Late Show on CBS (which your Maximum Leader records every night) he caught Ferguson putting the “Rabbit” throwdown on his viewers explaining that his mother (in Scotland) always did it. (Although Ferguson’s mother takes it a step further and declares “little white rabbits” on the first of every month.)

If any of you loyal minions out there have experience with this little tradition, your Maximum Leader would be interested to hear about it.

Anyhoo…

Your Maximum Leader has nuthin’ right now… So…

RABBIT!

Carry on.
