Anyone selling a horse to a king needs heroic levels of due diligence. The odds are good he'll find that the kingdom is drowning in debt and the courtiers all bicker over their pronouns.
Why am I thinking of Marty Feldman and the movable hump? :D
The physical condition of England's King Richard III has been a subject of debate for centuries. Now scientists say 3-D skeletal modeling shows the monarch who lived 500 years ago had a common form of scoliosis and that he's been a victim of spin on a historic scale.
The new findings cast a different light on the monarch Shakespeare described as a "poisonous bunch-backed toad." Killed in the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, the Richard's remains were verified by DNA tests last year after they were found under a parking lot in Leicester, England.
There's a lot of fascinating writing about Richard III and the Princes in the Tower. The discovery of his remains under a parking lot is just a part of it. Shakespeare's literary license has not done his memory any favors.
Marty Feldman is my favorite actor in all the Mel Brooks movies.

But for the lack of a nail, the king was hanged like the horse. <<ouch>>
Too much? Don't think about it, Friday is almost here.
Did human transition?! OR is this a different human?
😉😁
Rat's Human's Human is known to be fond of literature (especially horror stories), movies and apple pie.
Ah, another human. 😊👍
I'm running into Richard III everywhere these days.

Is it just me, or does Cousin always look excited and enthralled, like he's about to score the best hunk of cheese ever... 😁
yes, he does!
There is no free lunch, let alone a horse or a kingdom :D
