David, it’s so interesting what you say about Dada, and the origin of that word. I am reminded: Do you remember Idi Amin’s full name? Idi Amin Dada. His father’s name was Amin Dada.

Do you remember the dictator’s full title, while he was in “office”? It’s hard to memorize. It’s full of lies, as well as grandiosity. But you can’t help grinning, maybe, even as you remember Amin’s thousands of victims.

Here it is: “His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular.”

(Imagine that on a business card.)
