King Arthur and the Witch
Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the
monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could
have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and
ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as
long as he could answer a very difficult question.
Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer
and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he
would
be put to death.
The question?....What do women really want? Such
a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable
man, and to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible
query. But, since it was better than death, he
accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer
by year's end.
He returned to his kingdom and began to poll
everyone: the princess, the priests, the wise men
and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone,
but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.
Many people advised him to consult the old witch,
for only she would have the answer.
But the price would be high; as the witch was
famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant
prices she charged.
The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had
no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to
answer the question, but he would have to agree to
her price first.
The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the
most noble of the Knights of the Round Table and
Arthur's closest friend!
 Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunchbacked
and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like
sewage, made obscene noises, etc. He had never
encountered such a repugnant creature in all his
life.
He refused to force his friend to marry her and
endure such a terrible burden; but Lancelot,
learning of the proposal, spoke with Arthur.
He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice
compared to Arthur's life and the preservation of
the Round Table.
Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch
answered Arthur's question thus: What a woman really
wants, she answered....is to be in charge of her own
life.
Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the
witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur's
life would be spared.
And so it was, the neighboring monarch granted
Arthur his freedom and Lancelot and the witch had a
wonderful wedding.
 The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot,
steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered
the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him. The most
beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on
the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had
happened. The beauty replied that since he had been
so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she
would henceforth, be her horrible deformed self only
half the time and the beautiful maiden the other
half.
Which would he prefer? Beautiful during the
day....or night?
Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the
day, a beautiful woman to show off to his friends,
but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old
witch? Or, would he prefer having a hideous witch
during the day, but by night, a beautiful woman for
him to enjoy wondrous intimate moments?
What would YOU do?
What Lancelot chose is below. BUT....make YOUR
choice before you scroll down below. OKAY?
Noble Lancelot said that he would allow HER to make
the choice herself.
Upon hearing this, she announced that she would
be beautiful all the time because he had respected
her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.
Now....what is the moral to this story?

woman have her own way....
Things are going to get ugly.

America.... What are you going to do about it?
