Once Again

The day after that wonderful

Debate,

where the

Candidates

were especially cordial to one another,

you are sitting home alone wondering,

where in

God's Green Earth

can I find a book to read that is called;

A Catalogue of Books Relating to the History and Topography of Italy

by Sir Richard Colt Hoare, 2nd Baronet from the Internet Archive?

Well,

here it is.

Next question please.

You know,

the one you didn't know you wanted to ask.

Don't be shy. 

What the heck is a Baronet?
A Baronet or the rare female equivalent, a Baronetess is the holder of a baronetcy, a hereditary title awarded by the British Crown. The practice of awarding baronetcies was originally introduced in England in the 14th century and was used by James I of England in 1611 as a means of raising funds. A baronetcy is the only British hereditary honor that is not a peerage, with the exception of the Anglo-Irish Black Knight, White Knight and Green Knight (of which only The Green Knight is extant). A Baronet is addressed as "Sir" (just as is a knight) or "Dame" in the case of a Baronetess but ranks above all knighthoods and Damehoods in the Order of precedence, except for the Order of the Garter and the Order of the Thistle (and the dormant Order of St Patrick). Baronets are not deemed members of the nobility, but rather, titled gentry. In Europe, their social rank is roughly equivalent to petty nobility.
 

Did you get all that?

So,

the next time you are sitting around the coffee table,

I mean,

the tea table,

and your snobbish

Uncle Clifford

comes through the door stating he has just been awarded the moniker

"Baronet"

by the

Queen of England,

just secretly remember,

"In Europe, their social rank is roughly equivalent to PETTY NOBILITY!"

This is,

Once Again,

Answering Those Questions You Didn't Know You Wanted To Ask,

Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“I know I have but the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too.”
- Elizabeth I -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
