Recently an animation movie called “The Tale of Despereaux” was up on HBO. Story of a un-mouse-ly mouse who reads books instead of eating them, who’s not timid or afraid of anything, even cats, and dreams to be a Knight who saves a Princess - straight out of the story book he reads!
Don’t stories of Knights and Princesses always make us feel that we are missing something in life? The closest knights we come across are Sir Sean Connery and Sir Ben Kingsley ;-) bestowed knighthood by Her Majesty. Wonder how the real knights might feel in their graves! Surely some might have tried to come out of their deep lumber to avenge this ‘insult’.
