Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader hopes to be updating a little more in the coming days and weeks. He laptop has arrived at the Villainschloss and he’s got it all formatted up right… So he may now start posting from places other than his old desktop. (This news may or may not - depending on your point of view - be an improvement over this spacing sitting idle most of the time.)

Your Maximum Leader wanted mark the date. Today is the 137th anniversary of the birth of Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill. In the pantheon of great men that your Maximum Leader keeps, Winston Churchill is the greatest. Your Maximum Leader should, one day, take a photo of his Churchill book collection. (He’s got lots o’ books by and about the great man.)

If you would like to learn more about Churchill, you should visit the Churchill Centre website.

Your Maximum Leader will have a scotch and toast the great man tonight at dinner and regale the family with tales of Winston. Your Maximum Leader suggests that you all do the same…

Carry on.
