What Was Old is New Again
I thought that just 6-months ago we were told that there was no such thing as terrorism, just “man-made disasters.” I guess when you get to actually look behind the curtain, your perspective of the situation changes.
This article outlines Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano’s call for all Americans to join a “collective fight against terrorism”. It should come as no surprise to anyone that when the Bush administration asked for the public to report any suspicious activities, the Left screamed police state and fascist agenda. I eagerly await the outcry from the Left regarding this “attempt” to turn us all into informants for the man.
The Mandarin, whose real name is 吏恆, joined the order in 1309, and introduced the Gormogons into England during the 18th Century.
The Mandarin enjoys spending time with his pet manticore, Βάρἰκος, or Barry (who can be found in the Bestiary). When not in the Castle…well, frankly, nobody is quite sure where he goes.
The Mandarin popularized the fine art of “gut booting,” by which he delivers a powerful kick to the stomach of anyone that annoys him. Although nearly universal today, the act of gut booting or threatening someone or something with a gut boot is solely due to him.
