Which Reminds Me

Yes, I suppose that if I wanted to be really snarky, I could make some sarcastic comments about how certain people do not deserve to be considered for titles of royalty—even though actually I did not know that anyone really wanted such a headache—even though that would only be my opinion, the proper authorities will make a decision on that point eventually, and if I had said something about that I would only be setting myself up for a counterattack, which, anyway, I already have enough problems without engaging in some artificially constructed confrontation over some obscure point that had not crossed my mind.

There is a lot of responsibility and expense attached to a title, especially one of royalty, even though the original meaning of that seems to be lost in the misty past. Some people still want that for some reason although I am not sure why I need to talk about this.

There was some discussion of how some titles of royalty can be purchased with cash or check, but they don't get much respect, the use of them being somewhat dubious, consisting of a mere monetary transaction, only an ornamental title to be printed on business cards and door plaques and so forth, detached from the original meaning of a sovereign bestowing some type of authority upon a person who has proven his leadership on behalf of the sovereign's government or something along those lines. Ok, whatever. I would really prefer not to opine on this topic. I have nothing to add to that.
