Noble Kings have reigned.
Great Pharos have ruled.
and dictators have commanded
thoughout the centuries of history
But the hobbler,
Indeed, the hobler,
has achieved something even greater-
that which transcends all civilization and time itself.-
-
The Hobbler doesn't have to do anything!
He has to do -
nothing!
The Hobbler doesn't need to get up
The Hobbler doesn't need to get dressed
The Hobbler doesn't need to get shaved
The Hobbler doesn't need to leave the bed
The Hobbler doesn't need to do-
anything!
for the rest of his miserable hobbling existence
How many of these privileged few
that have occupied the ranks of history can achieve such greatness
Noone can surpass that feat which the hobbler has accomplished! absolutely doing -
nothing!
And the hobbler rejoices in his crippled existence
for he loves his bed, and his mattress
and his life, entombed in a nursing home cage
for he who hobbless today, remember,
shall be bedridden and miserable tomorrow
But he will have achieved greatness
For he will have done
what no dictator, king
or pharo has ever ever
come close to doing -
- he does -
nothing!
And that......
..
Is the achievenent
of all time1
Yes hobbler that is a monumental achievement well stated though quite insane
