If I ruled the world.
So, I know it has been awhile since my last post. My only excuse is the killer headache that I have been fighting for about a week. I will, however, work on a post at chemo today. And maybe some pictures. In the mean time, I thought I would give you some interactive fun.
I got a book from my friend Diane and it has all these crazy, fun things to do. Random, interesting and sometimes illegal things. One for each day of the year. Today's is "World Domination Day" - Make your plans in advance, in case you need them. Soooo, I am going to test you all. Fill out the following form, and tell me what it would be like if "I ruled the world." Remember, this is not about you. It's about me. Besides, this will give me something to read when I get home. Maybe I'll give out awards for the best answer.
You should be able to just copy and paste the form.
What is my title: Emperor __ Supreme Ruler__ Generalissimo__ Other________
Site of my world capital: Paris__ Washington__ Beijing__ Other_______
Capital to be renamed after: Me___ My mother____ My Pet_____ Other________
Enemies to be liquidated: ________
Friends to be promoted:___________
Countries to be abolished:__________
Planets to be subjugated:____________
Number of slaves:___________
Number of cars:______________
Number of jets in my personal fleet: __________
Catchphrase: I rule for no one (but me) __ An Iron fist in an iron glove __ Kill first, torture later ___ Other:______
Keep in mind, I didn't come up with the questions. The're from a book. Have fun. Take as much time as you need. I'll set a deadline of Friday.
Fill you in on the chemo later. -Elizabeth
PS: I have added a link to my Relay For Life page. It's on the right. Under the "All about me" section. Good. Look down, down ...right there. Under google news. If your interested, you could help me out by donating. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks - Liz

OK Marta, Tuesdays and Thursdays I have to be out of the house by 6:45 AM to take Ryan to wiffleball. Doesn't he know that cuts into my social time???
Liz, thinking of you today. Hope all went great. Sorry you don't have my Treo to check your blog results, but here goes....
What is my title: To others, Supreme Ruler, to your family, PITA
Site of my world capital: Mahopac (do you think you are leaving again?)
Capital to be renamed after: Me (It’s all about you!!)
Enemies to be liquidated: Too many to mention here
Friends to be promoted: Hopefully I’m on this list!
Countries to be abolished: hmmm…
Planets to be subjugated: Marta, this is for you: tr.v. sub•ju•gat•ed, sub•ju•gat•ing, sub•ju•gates To bring under control; conquer (I had to look it up also)
Number of slaves: How many sisters do you have?
Number of cars: With the price of gas? 1 hybrid (plus one for each of your friends to be promoted??)
Number of jets in my personal fleet: 2 (incase one isn’t working)
Catchphrase: It’s all about me!!!
After having spent all day with Elizabeth in chemo, I have had much time to ponder the fate of the world if she were to dominate; here are my best answers:
Your title: Comic Graphics Goddess
Site of your world capital: 150 Archer Road (The good news is, she’ll move out of the basement; the bad news is, she’s going to take over the 2nd floor; Sorry, mom and dad.)
Capital to be renamed: Margaritaville
Enemies to be liquidated: Those who do not laugh out loud at print (& parenthetical) humor
Friends to be promoted: (see slaves, below)
Countries to be abolished: Texas (excepting Arlington & Houston)
Planets to be subjugated: Uranus (‘cause as many times as I think about it, it’s still funny)
Number of slaves: silly people…if you’re still reading this blog, you already are one
Numbers of cars: cars? My personal driver will deal with that.
Number of jets in your personal fleet: irrelevant, but they will all have Satellite modems and TV
Catch phrase: “It’s not sharing if you make me do it” (bitterly said as I try to finish typing)…..wait, No, Don’t, HELP, AAAHH!!!”...(awkward silence) ….What I meant to say is, “It’s all about me.”
OK, so here is mine. I wasn't planning on submitting it today, but Katrina was a good little slave...er..sister and typed up my answers for me.
Your title: Her Supreme Omniscient Majesty (I saw that!)
Site of your world capital: Mahopac
Capital to be renamed after: my stuffed dog, Spike, aka Spikonia (I would have named him after my real dog, but mom won’t let me get one)
Enemies to be liquidated: Needles…all of them
Friends to be promoted: Promotions will be based on constant competition between friends and relatives for “The Top Spot” (Little do they know, “The Top Spot” is never attained, and thus no one will be promoted; yet everyone will continue to do my bidding)
Countries to be abolished: Any which don’t follow my rule
Planets to be subjugated: Pluto, it pissed me off (Pluto, you know what you did!)
Number of slaves: Unlimited, (with free nights and weekends…kind of like my cell phone minutes)
Numbers of cars: 9 (a convertible for trips to the beach; an SUV for driving kids to soccer and picking up groceries; a pick-up truck for haulin’ stuff; a limo for “special occasions”; a van for when I need more room; a hybrid for when I get my gas bill for the SUV; a sports car, ‘cause I saw it on MTV Cribs; a motorcycle, just ‘cause; and an 18-wheeler, so they can all come with me when I travel)
Number of jets in your personal fleet: 1, any more is just ostentatious
Catch phrase: “It’s all about me.”

Once upon a time there was a Pretty, Pretty Princess, who lived in the Land Of Make-Believe. Upon her inauguration she promptly changed the name of the capital city from The Shire to Candy Land, due to a falling out with Frodo. Frodo retaliated by sending an army of Ogres and Goblins to invade the Land of Make-Believe. It was only through the brave heroics of the 34th N&S Infantry (200 Nymphs and Sprites strong) that the evil army was held at bay. The timely arrival of the Last Unicorn broke the stalemate, allowing the forces of the Land of Make-Believe to push back the enemy to (cue James Earl Jones) The Dark Side. The 34th N&S and the Last Unicorn were awarded commendations for their bravery at, what has come to be known as, the Bloody Battle of Peaceful Pond.
As her first official act of colonization the Pretty, Pretty Princess sent envoys to the Moon of Endor. She had seen pictures of the cute native Ewoks, and she thought that they would make a lovely addition to her kingdom. (C’mon, an entire race of teddy bears at her beck and call!)
After the enslavement of the Ewoks, she started her first international good will tour. Considering a car far too pedestrian, the Pretty, Pretty Princess custom ordered a carriage from Fairy Godmother, Inc. She dealt with the Godmother, herself, who moonlights at MICEs (the Make-Believe Institute for the Care of Enchanted Species) at which gets discount rates. For longer trips she enlists the services of 1001 Flying Carpets, Ltd, as the Genie in charge is a close, personal friend. On several tour stops she makes a public appearance, and always closes her speech with the same catch phrase: “It’s all about you, my loyal subjects (said with a generous smile)…unless it’s about me. In which case it is no longer all about you….(pause)…What did you expect, I’m a princess.”

Sorry Liz,
I would like to join your quiz, but it is to "anspruchsvoll" for me. The only thing I could say is: If you ever rule the word - let me be on your side!! I don't think it's healthy to be your enemy ;) - see Fred!
Love Melanie
