    Perhaps it was you who didn't enter into the spirit of things. Did you take GB completely seriously? Assuming the answer is "yes," that was your first mistake.

    Your 2nd mistake was to post such a seemingly selfless message, impersonating someone with a genuine concern for the starving, poor, and downtrodden; then following up the post with an insult aimed at GB, using words only a nose-in-the-air social elitist would conjure up. 🙂

    Classic FMF. 🙂

    No "selfless message" was intended and my life here is far from being one in which I am "impersonating someone". I have made my own way in life. My post about food security simply reflected part of my personal and professional interest and food security is something I would almost certainly address if "If [I] Became King of The World". It is of course your prerogative to express doubt that I have "genuine concern" for this issue. 🙂

    If You Became King of The World, what would be your very first order of business? Think King GB would get rid of all
    processed food with package labels containing words he wasn't able to pronounce correctly. How about King You?[/b]
    I don't hypothesise about impossible events. I don't waste my time doing so.

    Feel freely to image you have become king, but the reality is that not one iota of events has changed since your dream.

    Give it a break, mikelom.

    We're being playful in the old sandbox.

    Let your imagination take wings.

    If I was king of the world, I would dispatch my royal subjects around the world to broker peace treaties in trouble areas of my kingdom or else both former country leaders would be subject to the gallows.
    Also, I would demand that Hostess be put back into business and produce an unlimited supply of FunnyBones for the royal pantry.

    As King, all families that encouraged their children to Play Pop Warner Football and Learn Chess

    would receive Lifetime Box Seats for All NFL Season Games and Free Subscriptions for Three Years

    to the Red Hot Pawn Chess Site when their sons and daughters reached the age of thirteen (13).
