Re: "Yea but being the richest dude in the cemetery with the biggest mauseleum is really sick. This is the stuff of Pharoughs and Kings, the same mentality." Each to his own! (Unless you want some government telling you what to do with your money when you die... like with an estate tax to make sure that people actually have to work for their own livings instead of just inheriting it all. :-) Still... that 'biggest mauseleum' thing got me to thinking about Ozymandias: OZYMANDIAS I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.
