Happy birthday Queen Elizabeth the II

Title says it all!

Did you know:
She has owned over 30 Corgis
She has had the same Hairdresser for 20 years
She sent her first e-mail back in 1976
and my personal favourite, She owns all sturgeons, Whales and Dolphins in british waters. lololololol What if they swim into other waters are they still hers? and if you owned a Dolphin that swam into her waters would you loose ownership? or would it just be put on hold untill your dolphin left the british waters? I am worried, what if she was to call up all these watery beasts and let them loose on the world, watch our America (oops, i think i may have just sealed the fate of british waters. prepare to be bombed. The goose is up!)

i feel guilty after calling the queen 'she'

I have owned several Corgis. They were of the toy car variety.

Not until they swim back.

Happy birthday Her Majesty! She is a she, isn't she? Perhaps I don't know the proper protocol.

Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl but she doesn't have a lot to say
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl but she changes from day to day
I want to tell her that I love her a lot, but I've got to get a bellyful of wine
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl some day I'm gonna make her mine
Oh yeah
Someday I'm gonna make her mine

--The Beatles

also all swans. No they are not hers if they swim out of British waters, it's a similar law to the one that says you own any wild animal that's on your land, if it leaves your land it's not yours anymore.

How old is she now?

Go, Brenda!

If we must have an hereditary Head of State, this one has done us proud. The poor old sod deserves a rest after all the hard work she's done for us, and I mean that.

And I'd rather have her in charge of the army than some Commander in Chiefs I could think of...
