  • Queen Elizabeth II

    The Queen's doctors expressed concern about her health, and now the royal family members are flying up to Scotland to be with her. Sounds like her time in mortality is short.

    The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.

        It's wild to think about how long she has been queen.

        Her first prime minister was Winston Churchill.

        Ian Fleming wrote the first James Bond novel in 1952. Since then, over eleven books, two collections of short stories, and seven different actors in twenty-seven films, each Bond has served Queen Elizabeth II.

            70 years on the throne. Amazing.

              You should, especially the first 2 seasons. Just amazing how much world history she was a part of.

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

                        Chuck has some big shoes to fill... I wonder if he will wear the pumps or the platforms.

Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock
