I thank Milady Majesties, Catherine and Elizabeth, for their kind appreciation of this foolish old Wizard. Nonetheless, 'twas that ancient Kringle sage Lord Rambo who grunted of old:

"To survive a war, ya gotta become war."

And thus, Master Richard is out to make the following clear: You don't talk mean about the ol' "Elf Without Jingles" and expect that he shall be pleased about it! And so, on the weekend ere Thanksgiving, on the eve of the famous Mother Goose Parade of El Cajon, California, the Great Kringle War doth begin --- and my prayer is that me Mortal-born alter ego shall come out on top, as would be his only wish!

Master Blackwolf
