Way Back 2
You might remember a few days ago that our beloved Castle archivist Marie found a whole box of old photos, and the Czar elected to scan a few of them and put them out here for you. As you know, we have been around a long time and each of us has done all sorts of nutty, fun things and interacted with famous people.
Here is one that Ghettoputer had placed in the box. There is no date on it—although there are other things on the back of it we should not mention—but ‘Puter guesses this was around 1963 or so. Evidently at some point he went to Disneyland in California.
Enjoy. We will try to scan some more as time permits.

The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
