"All that remains for the McGee is an ironic Knighthood, A spavined steed, second class armor, a dubious lance, a bent broadsword, and the chance, now and again, to lift into a galumphing charge agaianst captial E Evil, his brave battle oaths marred by an occasional Hysterical giggle. He has to Carry a very long banner because on it has been embroidered, by maidens galore, The Only Thing in the World Worth a Damn is the Strange, Touching, Pathethic, Awesome Nobility of the Individual Human Spirt. The end of the banner trails on the ground way the hell behind his horse, and people keep stepping on it."
