I just got an email from Goldin Auctions entitled "King of Collectibles Invites You to Bid". LOL, did I miss a coronation?

Could be a reference to Richard's ruthlessness.

Some Shakespearean scholars claim the original line in his first draft was actually, "My kingdom for a T206 common!!"

Ken has always been a very good promoter and it has served him well. Not my cup of tea but you can't knock his results. Props for selling his business at the top of the market.

In the play, through trickery and depravity while posing as a devout and modest man, Richard makes himself King illegitimately. As part of the saga he has his nephew, the rightful king, murdered in the tower where a King was traditionally to stay before his coronation. Richard's reign is short, and he dies ingloriously, deserted by many of his followers on the field, begging for a horse.
I am determined to prove a villain,
And hate the idle pleasures of these days.
Plots I have laid, inductions dangerous,
By drunken prophecies, libels and dreams

I presume the literary illusion was to the dubious ethics and doubtful legitimacy of the self-proclaimed king's.

Greg, spot on, if a bit over-the-top analogy by me. A couple of unpleasant incidents made me draw the comparison.

Ken has called himself that for quite some time, I believe.

I like Ken (hi Ken) and we talk sometimes, but I get this flashback of the King before him.

Where has Brian gone? He and I always got along fine....
