    Domitian? Hold a grudge over mixed loyalties? Never!

    (And we thought Aetna’s smoke was ominous…!)

      A paranoid fear of betrayal and danger? That’s not Domitian’s style at aaaall….

      That got me thinking, since I was pretty sure “sir” derives from “sire” which is related to French “(mon)sieur” so probably comes from Latin–and what I found is that is does come from Latin, but from “senior.” The more you know ::whoosh:: ::star::

      For your “caesar” derivatives you have yer “kaiser” and “czar/tsar.” Hmm. I wonder what else. Salad. Roll.

      (You’ve read so much of this story, I MUST finish yours 😀 😀 )
