There we go! I've been trying to think of something but I don't have any good ideas. I'm not exactly sure what it it about "Grand Poohbah" that bugs me. It could be a little confusing to have as many Supreme Rulers running around here there are Grand Poohbahs, don't you think? I know, maybe it is that the title seems to convey the idea of power and authority, but in a joking and not real way, and it's uncomfortable to me because I don't like the idea of being told that I have power somehow when I don't. It reminds me of the way my husband always tells me, "you're the boss" but I protest that I'm not the boss and don't even want to be, but he keeps insisting. I'd go for a title that is more subdued and respectful, without implying power that doesn't exist. Know what I mean?
