    Who watches the watcher that watches the watchmen? - Terry Pratchett, said by Duke of Ankh, Sir Vimes.

    If its Terry Pratchett quotes....

    Ankh Morpokians have embraced Democracy, one man one vote - The Patrician is the man, he gets the vote.

    and after reading Guards Guards again for the 14th time i noticed the sign above the old watch house

    Fabricati Diem PVNC

    which Colon reckons means To Protect and To Serve...
    We're only here for the Banter - The Luvvies - Chewin' The Fat

    Violence and Lubrication is the solution to fixing everything, if it still doesn't work, you need more lubrication.
