Peasant Woman: Well, how'd you become king, then?

King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
Dennis: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis: You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
Arthur: Shut up
Dennis: I mean, if I went around saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

I'm sitting firmly in middle age and still building my own machines. Assembled my latest a couple of years ago with components from Newegg, it's a Haswell based machine built specifically so that I could wander around in Skyrim. Nothing hard about it.

The latter half of the 2000s was rough for US dev and test employees at the Lexington campus as more and more foreign workers filled the halls and morale took a dive as people saw the writing on the wall. Of course, now Lexmark is in the toilet and being sold to the Chinese, so that worked out real well.

A-men. That's it in a nutshell.
