King Ozymandias of Assyria was running low on cash after years of war with the Hittites. His last great possession was the Star of the Euphrates, the most valuable diamond in the ancient world. Desperate, he went to Croesus, the pawnbroker, to ask for a loan.

Croesus said, "I'll give you 100,000 dinars for it."

"But I paid a million dinars for it," the King protested. "Don't you know who I am? I am the king!"

Croesus replied, "When you wish to pawn a Star, makes no difference who you are."

Your right, Andrew would have love it.

Why won't Andrew see it?

Why won't Andrew see it?

Because Andrew is now a former member, though one in good standing. He is a fully qualified eunuch. He decided a few years ago that he wanted to do other things than hang out here. He is well and lives with a harem of cats. Our friend Jesus, keeps tabs on him periodically.
