diSPELLing a vicious rumor - that king james I was queer. Over his lifetime on the throne,

it is said that he invited several men into his bedroom.  It wasn't until a few months ago, that i had read that the king's bedroom was very secure.  In the kings treasury room, if a guy snuck in and made off with a few bags of money or stole a few gold salad plates from the dining room hutch ... yeah whatever, lots more where that came from.

But an envelope containing a parchment or two.  It's easier to hide that in your britches than a gold goblet.  National security.  Oh, and the palace had ears;  some things were best said away from courtiers, servants, minstrels, mistresses...

Royals also moved once, maybe twice yearly.  So, servants packing and unpacking stuff went on.  Needless to say, it's one thing for a few silver spoons to get mislaid in the shuffle, documents concerning national security...uh, another story.

Until recently, i just assumed that king james was swishy.  Believed the vicious rumor, i forgot about top secret papers, meetings and documents.  Bet our President keeps top secret stuff in his bedroom.

As for the cranks who want to impeach our President, blow it out yer you-know-what!
