Once upon a time, there was a lone web designer who worked night and day creating wonderful websites for the local townsfolk.  He was very good, and word was gradually spreading of his craft and skill.

One day, the lone web designer recieved a commision to create website for a far off kingdom.  It would serve the common folk, helping them learn more about their kingdom, the services and pleasures it would provides.  "Surely, this website shall be my greatest achievement yet," the lone web developer said to himself.

He planned diligently doing all he could to ensure his benefactors would be pleased.  Even inviting the efforts of one of the kingdom's own royal servants.

Working dillegently, often into the night, the lone web designer toiled and sweated over his creation.  He dreamed of all the common people who would use the site and be relived of their ignorance.

A pair of Sundays past, and the website was complete.  It was beautiful, like a porcelein chinese vase waiting for flowers to complete it's purpose.  All that remained was for his patrons to send him the final documentation..

He sent word of it's completion and waited.  Two full moons had passed and no parchments were ever received. 

He sent word beseeching them to provide the final requirments for his creation.

One day, he received papers marked with the royal seal.  The information was within as was the following note: 

Dear Lone Web Designer

I'm afraid the website isn't quite finished.  We in the royal court feel that Main Menu is much too complicated for the common people. Please remove the following items from the main menu:   "New Resident Information," "Tourism," and " Business Resources."   In their stead create "Lords and Ladies of the Royal Court" placed right along side the "Home" button.  That the people may know the names of those who rule them so mercifully.

Regards, 

King Chamber President 

The Lone Web  Designer was deeply saddened, as he knew his creation would never be all it could be.

So with a sigh, he made the requested changes and filled the pages with the royal contents.

Once finished he wrote and sent out the final billing statement.  As he watched the courier ride off the lone Web Developer softly spoke to himself, "If they take more than two full moons to pay, I'm gonna sue their asses."

The End
