The friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds.

Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought this was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not.

He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him.

So the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to “persuade” them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he’d be back if they didn’t close up shop.

Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that: Hugh, and only Hugh, can prevent florist friars.

When the tenth consecutive homely monarch took up his position in Madrid, it became clear that...
The reign in Spain went mainly to the plain.

Once upon a time, in a king’s castle, the king and all his subjects were trapped by a huge yellow monster that lived in the moat. Every time somebody tried to use the draw-bridge, or swim across the moat, the monster’s yellow fingers would come up out of the moat and grab them, and the monster would eat them.

Food in the castle was getting very low, all supplies running out. They needed to get word out for help. The king requested his bravest knights to try get across the moat. One by one, no matter how brave and clever they were, the monster’s yellow fingers would rise up out of the moat and grab them.

Then, there were no knights left. So the king sent his foot-soldiers. All we caught by the yellow fingers.

Finally, all he had were two page boys. “You are our last hope,” the king said. “You must try.”

The castle doors opened, and the two pages set off, walking across the draw-bridge. They walked and walked and walked. The yellow fingers rose up. But stopped, and did nothing! Wonder upon wonders, the pages made it across, and were able to get help.

And to this day, we know that, when you need help, you should let your pages do the walking through the yellow fingers.

While reading the Miranda rights the arresting officer said, “Anything you say can be used against you”.

The arrestee replied, “I know. I’m married”.
