I live in Germany and I have encountered several German princesses and the one thing they've all in common is that they are somebody's great-grandmother.

My indirect ancestor, Edward Oxford, was the first person to attempt to assassinate Victoria when he was only 18 years old. He spent 24 years at Bedlam (then 3 more at Broadmoor) before being released on the condition he leave England and never return.

He emigrated to Australia, changed his name to John Freeman and became a respected member of Melbourne society. His book "Lights and Shadows of Melbourne Life, " was published in 1888 under his assumed name and his wife (a widow he married in 1881) never discovered his true identity.

If my corpse can’t rub up on the corpse of my beloved then a bunch of people are going to get haunted so damn hard so damn fast that their heads will spin.

"Hey. This is the IRS. You're 78 million pounds into debt, but we're willing to forgive it if you just marry some random German lady."
