....you know, in theory, I think *I* own you! No, really - Follow this one through with me. Said Company exists to serve the needs of the member houses, yes? I am a member of one of the houses, (and probably the member of my house most involved with you, come to think of it), yes? My house pays dues that somehow probably pay your salary . . . so, I think I own you both! Wheeeeee!! Jump! Sit! Stay! Buy me things! Slack and draw comics at your desks! (At the very least, follow my direct order to go out to lunch tomorrow, Hot Presses be damned!)

Signed,
Your Magnanimous Owner
