PFP=Proverbs for Paranoids
If there are no other maxims in TRP's work, then I feel particularly 
justified in considering KCBC as perhaps straight from TRP himself. 
It strikes me as his style of writing.

As far as the "Mr. Musikar" goes, I hope you know that it didn't 
really bother me, but "Henry" will do fine. In contrast to our 
other teachers, my seventh grade math teacher used to call us by our 
titled names. I can picture his large frame walking down between the 
desks, rubbing the knuckle of his middle finger against the palm of 
his other hand, intoning "Take it like a man, Mr. Musikar" in 
preparation of adminstering a knuge to yours truly. One of 
my favorite teachers, actually.
