6. Much as I enjoy worshiping
...unavailable men who are geographically far removed from me, I think I'll give it a pass this time.

12. I've long
thought that would be a pretty good gig. You have to be responsible for a lot of things, but you don't actually have to do anything. Your followers will just accept that whatever they wanted you to do, but you opted not to do, was in your infinite wisdom something they were better off not having happen. and of course, they will praise you for the good things that happen, whether you made them happen or not.

Although, the pay pretty well sucks; it seems the PR and marketing people keep it all for themselves.

:P

17. I can't help recalling
the episode of I, Claudius in which Caligula breathlessly approaches Claudius and asks, "Notice anything different about me?"or words to that effect.

And Claudius, seeing the madness in Caligula's eyes, does the smartest thing you can do with an absolute ruler of questionable mental stability: look delighted and say, "Why, you've become a god!"

Which is exactly what Caligula has in mind.

19. That happened in Xena all the time
There were apparently multiple ways to become a god, the most common being finding little hidden caches of ambrosia and eating them up. This happened to many an unworthy egomaniacal villain, whom Xena had to bury under a rock slide or throw into a lava pit.

Then you could be an evil deity.
