How would you like THAT in your cul-de-sac? Apparently, some East-coaster’s wife [was SOMEBODY’S favorite movie “Shakespeare in Love”??] wanted her rich-beyond-sense husband to take their role-playing a little too far and permanently ensconce her as Guenivere. She got divorced (beheaded?) before the thing was completed (probably due to arguments over building.a.castle.in.Kentucky).
I mean, I KNOW Kentucky bears a certain resemblance to the middle ages, but that does NOT mean you should build gun turrets. I, for one, would like to encourage a renaissance. I mean…does building such a castle make you the monarch of the moronic? Maybe we have finally found King Cheney’s undisclosed location.
I know I am giving Kentucky a lot of grief but 1) it’s Kentucky and 2) I come from someplace called Kentuckiana…which tends to make you a little bitter. I mean…how low do your test scores have to be before you form a regional cooperative with Kentucky? Kentucky (or Hoosier) jokes are about the least offensive commerce that goes on between the two states (seeing as Kentuckiana is the geographical equivalent of a meth lab).
Although it is inexplicably going to remain as a private residence, the Kentucky Castle owners plan to rent it out for special events that can be conducted in “medieval-like” splendor (bubonic plague is extra). So now I FINALLY know where we can celebrate Rita’s big birthday next year. =)
