It will do.

Cecil was a pretty cool paladin in Final Fantasy 2 (4 in Japan), but I thought he was cooler as the dark knight. Still, there's probaly no way you could have kicked Zemus' ass as the dark knight. But Kain was my favorite character from FFII.

You know I just had a revelation. Let us look at one of the most popular songs of all time.

How much more interesting grammatically would it have been had Queen called their song "We Are The Paladins"? We English scholars would have done backflips for such a grammatical statement.

"No time for losers.. cause we are the paladins"

Interesting to ponder that I must say.

[Fred Sanford]

I guess that means I need to call Muhammad Ali "pal" instead of "champ"?

He was the greatest heavyweight paladin of the world. Somehow I dont think hes gonna like me calling him Pal.

Final Fantasy Kicks ass, and yeah, cecil did rule, with his pink and purple hair and white robes. Final Fantasy II, to this day, remains my favorite one. I actually have it in my PS1 upstairs, but ill be damned if i ever get a chance to play it.

After examining some more music, I thought perhaps if we took a negative song written by "Beck"; we could use the word paladin to make it positive.

This song was originally titled "Loser."

I'm a paladin baby: so why don't you love me

What a nice ring! I don't think thats the vibe he was going for, but at least I can sing it in my head the rest of the day.

[RobTheDrummer]

I hope the Steelers become paladins.

[Grammar]

Well, you know I am from Seattle. I can't have you all turn on me like you did Cliff and Norm; I say go Steelers.

[RobTheDrummer]

Go Steelers? I thought you would be a Raiders fan...You're too good with Grammar to be a Stillers Fan!
