| IF I RULED THE WORLD First let me make one thing perfectly clear... as ruler of the world I wouldn't want to be a BIG BROTHER or a BIG DADDY or the LORD HIGH WHATJAMACALLIT living in a fishbowl palace more controlled by my subjects than they are by me. No thanks friends. None of that for me. I like my freedom! The only possible reason that I would have for ruling the world would be to build a world that would make me happy. Being known and highly visible to others would mean having to deal with a never ending stream of people expecting me to make them happy. The only way I would be willing to rule the world would be if I could write my instructions in fiery letters across the sky and have them followed absolutely. Since I can't, I won't. The world will have to muddle along the best it can without me. Just for fun though let's see what the world is missing. Let's pretend...you ruled, me ruler! What now? Do I immediately start rushing around doing things to show you what a good ruler I am? I do not! I'm absolute ruler of the world! I don't have to show anybody anything. I simply pass down edicts from on high. It is up to you, and my other subjects, to implement them to my complete satisfaction or suffer the consequences. Therefore... EDICT # 1
In absolute compliance with my own Edict #1...I hereby resign as Ruler Of The world! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |||
