Look closely it comes with it's own crown too! who would ever want to be King? from the Time Magazine review, 1946: www.time.com/time/magazine/printout/0,8816,887225,00.html "His royalty, as scion of both the House of David and the Herodian line, carried with it the mythical attributes of a "sacred king"—of Tammuz, the Babylonian Adonis, who annually died and rose again, whose festival occurred at the same time of year as the Jewish Passover".

from the Time Magazine review, 1946: www.time.com/time/magazine/printout/0,8816,887225,00.html "His royalty, as scion of both the House of David and the Herodian line, carried with it the mythical attributes of a "sacred king"—of Tammuz, the Babylonian Adonis, who annually died and rose again, whose festival occurred at the same time of year as the Jewish Passover".Oh, the King's road is everywhere you look. of COURSE it is: The book's last line, " Stat rosa pristina nomine, nomina nuda tenemus" translates literally as " Yesterday's rose endures in its name, we hold empty names". The general sense, as Eco pointed out,[5] was that from the beauty of the past, now disappeared, we hold only the name. In this novel, the lost "rose" could be seen as Aristotle's book on comedy (now forever lost), the exquisite library now destroyed, or the beautiful peasant girl now dead. We only know them by the description Adso provides us — we only have the name of the book on comedy, not its contents. As Adso points out at the end of the fifth day, he does not even know the name of the peasant girl to lament her. Does this mean she does not endure at all? Perhaps this is a deliberate mis-translation. This quote has also been translated as "Yesterday's Rome stands only in name, we hold only empty names". This line is a verse by twelfth century monk Bernard of Cluny (also known as Bernard of Morlaix). Medieval manuscripts of this line are not in agreement; Eco quotes one Medieval variant verbatim,[6] but Eco was not aware at the time of the text more commonly printed in modern editions, in which the reference is to Rome (Roma), not to a rose (rosa).[7] The alternative text, with its context, runs: Nunc ubi Regulus aut ubi Romulus aut ubi Remus? / Stat Roma pristina nomine, nomina nuda tenemus. This translates as "Now where is Regulus, or Romulus, or Remus? / Yesterday's Rome stands only in name, we hold empty names".[8] All roads lead to Rose?

Christians are cute when they're angry! ;D

www.nytimes.com/2011/05/01/books/review/how-writers-build-the-brand.html"But they got off easy compared with those invited to the “Funeral Supper” of the 18th-century French bon vivant Grimod de la Reynière, held to promote his opus “Reflections on Pleasure.” The guests’ curiosity turned to horror when they found themselves locked in a candlelit hall with a catafalque for a dining table, and were served an endless meal by black-robed waiters while Grimod insulted them as an audience watched from the balcony. When the diners were finally released at 7 a.m., they spread word that Grimod was mad — and his book quickly went through three printings."

I wrote her once with a question, many years ago and her odd reply was to ask me what I will do when all the orphans come to my door. well, at least I know now lol Am I visible yet?

The question was: Is Paul dead? Paul is Dead is an axiom. Personally, I'm willing to ACCEPT this axiom as a way to look a bit differently at some of the best art that man has ever created. Axioms have "tons of power" in them - just like Macca's lyrics, which tend to be full of truism and catch-as-catch-can spirituality so as to appeal to as much people as possible. There will be an answer? exactly, case in point. Christian people can see "Mother Mary" as Maria All the others can see it as his own mother,Everybody's happy! you'll have to give me a bit more if you want to convince me eye, (not that I think you do, I think you couldn't care less) HOWEVER I DO think that it is ironic that in a forum SO speculative any claim that Sutcliffe's ("real and unquestionable") death was not "natural" is met with complete indifference at best.
