Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader is having a Conan the Barbarian moment.
No. Not the one where he runs around in a loincloth with a sword hacking snake-worshipping thugs to pieces in between marathon sessions of drinking, cavorting, and nailing the blond girl…
The one where the “Woe Masters” ask Conan what is good in life. He responds, “To krush yo enemies, to zee dem driven before yo, and to hear de lamentations of de womens.” To which the gathered warriors respond, “Yes. That is good.”
Excursus: That quotation is a variation on one attributed to Genghis Khan. Genghis purportedly said, “What is good in life is to crush your enemies and drive them before you; and to hear the lamentations of their wives and daughters.” That line might have been in the Conan script originally, but Ah-nuld hadn’t mastered enough English to handle it. Although he did get lamentations down pretty well… Your Maximum Leader digresses…
If just a moment ago you would have walked up to your Maximum Leader and asked what is good in life he would have said cruising down the road in the Villainmobile. The sun shining. The weather great. The windows down and listening to the Derek and the Dominos album.
It was glorious. Perhaps he will go out and experience that some more.
Carry on.
