	Fooling Around the World: The History of the Jester
		Perhaps because the European court jesters were so inextricably linked with the tradition of folly that straddled the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, their time was relatively short-lived, and they died out more or less as the fashion for folly faded.
		The court jester is universal not merely in having been at home in such diverse cultures and eras, but also in taking his pick from the same ragbag of traits and talents no matter when or where he occurs.
		Jesters are also generally of inferior social and political status and are rarely in a position (and rarely inclined) to pose a power threat.

		The man charged by President Bush with screening potential U.S. Supreme Court justice nominees believes the Constitution is a living document and that only the nine fl-robed brethren have sufficient understanding of the document to explain to the people what it means.
		For those hoping a new Bush-picked court might actually overturn previous questionable rulings such as Roe vs. Wade, Gonzales offered little reason to believe that is an objective of new appointees.
		If this were true, of course, the Supreme Court would be the most powerful and least accountable of all three branches of the federal government.

		But lesser films looked this good; what makes 'The Court Jester' such a wonderful entertainment is what happens in those sets.
