Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for June 02, 2010

Broomie, that’s just so not you.

This is where Logic leads!

Didn’t know you had any potential Broomie.

I don’t know if it’s potential, but you’re sure full of something.

Llewellenbruce,

You should know that Broomie has LOTS of potential by now! I’d say several million Volts of potential! (Maybe even 1.21 GigaWatts of potential.)

The problem with so much potential is the ZAP power.

Broomie: No, no, and the potential had already burst into full weed in you from the very beginning.

Logic? This is one of the worst logical fallacies that a credulous man has been duped into believing. It keeps him from facing the awful truth about himself: the corrupt seek power, and the absolutely corrupt seek absolute power.

Ominous.

Broomie, your potential peaked about 1200 years ago. You’re on the downhill slide.

Since I’m just barely old enough to know what this means, you can be Queen For The Day.

Good enough? I thought so.

You have the quotation not quite right. It should be:

Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely.

“I wanna be ELECTED!”

If you doubt it, just look at the little power in the comments section and how corrupt we are already.

SOMEONE’S been staying up late and watching those infomercials again, haven’t they?

With great power comes great responsibility… as long as there are people watching.

With great power comes great irresponsibility.

Aaron, if you remember “Queen for a Day” your potential peaked 1200 years ago too! (Just like mine!)
