My dearest AdrianII,
You knave. You saucy knave!
I have no words save those spoken by Lord Palmerston in response to the Chinese who spoke to him with less than Victorian manners.
"The time is fast coming when we shall be obliged to strike another blow in China. These half-civilized governments, such as those in China, Portugal, or Spanish America, all require addressing every eight or ten years to keep them in order. Their minds are too shallow to receive an impression that will last longer than some such period, and warnings are of little use.They care little for words and they must not only see the stick but actually feel it on their shoulders before they yield."
Thwack!
Unto each good man a good dog
