See, now you're just being silly. The British royal family these days is nothing more than a left over 'formality' so to speak, from an era long gone. Just like in Canada, South Africa, and New Zealand, they have nothing to do with the running of the country. The only impact they really have for us is that we get a public holiday in June for the Queen's birthday.

Perhaps we should talk about American heads of state, past and present? :p

What do assault rifles have to do with raising children?

I use them to establish trust with my children. A child who shows no fear and lets you shoot a watermelon he's been holding above his head for an hour doesn't have to mow the lawn in lingerie and high-healed shoes.

That's barbaric!

Watermelons are so heavy. I go with yams or apples.

Firstly, I'm trying to teach strength and integrity. Secondly, an AK-47 just isn't that accurate at three-hundred feet.

So you have to make a few new kids- that's the fun part for us, isn't it?

Actually you are quite wrong. In Britain the monarch serves a number of functions both in the government and civil life. The royal family atleast in Canada also serves various functions. It just happens that many of these functions have been delegated - but they are still responsible for them, as well as the last in line in terms of appeal and authority within the legal framework of the state. They are much like a company CEO. The GM is a little like the PM, and the GG a little like the president. Most people will never come into contact with the royal level - and they are rarely called upon, but reserve and state powers ARE exercised periodically, and they are immensely important things like the patriation of the constitution, and adding seats to the senate, two examples of things the Queen has done in the last 30 years that have been publically visible. Canadians are just taught to be ignorant of the royalty and tend to have a republican mindset these days rather than a loyalists mindset- it is pervasive in the education system (and the media has made it all the rage since the 1960's. WWII was the turning point, WWI was tremendous in shift, but Canadians were British subjects up until they became commonwealth citizens - this lasted until 1982 (in Canada).. when new Canadians born we no longer commonwealth citizens (they still are in other parts of the commonwealth depending on the other commonwealth realms laws pertaining to people born within the commonwealth)- term used to redefine british subject status, that has been sapped largely from all countries laws, making people citizens of countries rather than british subjects by virtue of being born in the realms. The monarch has duties to british subjects seperate from the duties to the citizens of their state, likewise British subjects have duties beyond the normal responsibilities of to their state - british subject status contains responsibiltiies direct to the sovereign, rather than the sovereign state.

You have to use discretion. Weeding out the weakest of the litter has a very limited number of plausible "hunting accidents" before children's protective services starts getting nosy. Fortunately, none of those agencies shares information from state to state, if you know what I mean. Then there's the fact that the other children are always really distracted for a week or two after and home-school-bible-study lessons just don't take with the same stickiness. That all gets resolved, however, when the first child to break down and cry is targeted as "next" in line for "eviction".

What the ? I'm talking about re-purposing the bones of the last child to summon up a brand new one through dark rituals and pacts made with the one, true dread lord who waits only in darkness, whispering secrets to itself.

You're ed up, man. I would never do anything so overtly illegal, much less irresponsible. ing Americans. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Whoa! Whoa! One at a time? I'll see your single hell-spawn and raise you a platoon of child-soldiers willing to and capable of serving Jesus in the end times. Besides, it's not like you can claim a decreasing number of dependents and not raise some flags with the IRS or Social Security. Sure - both agencies are run by Jews, but they're a necessary evil and I'm making a killing on tax evasion and welfare fraud. Of course, some of my kin have to "stand in" on all the forms but I've got high hopes for both Jebedia 2 and Sarah 4; Sarah 4, technically being nineteen years of age. She don't look any older than thirteen, though. ;)

Well when you're in the business of soul-bartering, it simply pays to keep your expenses in control. If I conjure up too many infernal simulacrum, I run the chance of having one ally with the rest against me, bickering amongst themselves, etc.

One is enough to keep the census committees at bay while I work on my Great Project. Those little blighters don't leave a single scrap of evidence!
