    I was truly annoyed at being thusly unhatted because hidden under my round hat was a flask of ardent spirits..Undisturbed, however, because it was in my vest pocket, was a bottle of Emperor Paul’s Gold Bond® Powder. Remember "Stay Cool with Emperor Paul’s Gold Bond® Powder. “Do a Little Shake. Do a Little Tingle.”

    Shedding Light on Dark Story of Murdered Emperor. He was referred to as a madman. .Wikipedia: Paul I of Russia. This has to be the correct Paul (Emperor Paul I) because I found the word Jacobinism in the text. (Not sure what Jacobinism is/was).

    Police? Powder? Spotted fish [exact species not recognized by me]? Well, off with their round hats, I say! No Jacobinism here, I say! Au contraire, I “remember the ’45” and the Bonnie Prince: yup; Jacobite.

    Aluminum foil hats, on the other hand, are always stylish and practical and perfectly legal. But they didn’t have aluminum foil until very late in the nineteenth century, and had to make do with tin foil, which made your head taste funny.As it turns out, the greatest threat to the royal family of Russia was the royal family of Russia.

    But that is terrible. The baking soda will change the ph of your underarm and kill millions of bacteria that require the naturally acidic environment of your skin’s surface.This sort of “cleansing” should be considered a war crime!Fish don’t really smell like much at all. But they exude a slippery substance that coats their scales and makes them able to slide through the water more easily. Once exposed to the open air, opportunistic airborne bacteria soon colonize their surfaces. It is the bacterial waste that has an odor.

    A grand chapter in the saga of religious factionalism. Is that fish on a throne? PUAL’S throne maybe?! Good thing it’s not wearing a hat, especially a round one

    Stupid French. Who names their kid “Vigée?” And I don’t know what that uppity little thing is over the first e, but it’s not even a proper high comma. Stupid French.

    P.S. Never trust a bunch of revolutionaries who name their club after a street. Who does that?

    The fish looks like a tetra, but I don’t think the fins are right. Emperor tetra?

    I know. The alien transmitter reflects back and cooks my brain if I wear it too long. I usually only wear it in the bathroom so the alien overlords can’t watch me.
