Bwahahaha! Ahahahahaha! Ha!


Laugh all you like. I've proved that Constitutional Monarchies are more democratic than Republics by showing that 8 of the 10 most democratic countries in the world are Constitutional Monarchies.

There can be no arguments about it.

Some Brits (notice I said Brits ; not necessarily Scots but probably for the most part some English) are enamoured (again take notice - this time of the correct spelling) with American culture.

Yeah, that's it. Just blame it all on the English. You're not content in only ruling England, but you have to make silly comments such as "the English are enamoured with American culture."

Maybe the Scots are enamoured with English culture, instead. After all, there are so many of you living in England that it must be true.

If only more people had the British sense of humor. Best damn shows on TV are from England, Cornation Street, Bad Girls, I use to love on the Buses in the eighties.

I send a big hug to the USA, blew em a kiss why I was at it.

Some photos of the Queen in Australia. She'll be going to Melbourne to open the Commonwealth Games, the Commonwealth's equivalent of the Olympics.


The second stop on the Queen's tour of Australia took her to Canberra, the country's capital. She planted a eucalyptus tree while at Government House.

Thanks for posting the pictures, I love the Queen. My younger sister was selected to present her with flowers in the 70's when she stopped for a visit in Nova Scota.

RE: Describe the United S

what I wanna know is......what's the deal?..does she wear a different crown and sash for each country she goes to in the commonwealth?......cus that kinda looks little different to the stuff I've seen her wear for official "queen of canada" duties, basically: is this her "queen of australia" getup?

I was a hard core communist till I was in my early 20's. Poor me.

after reading most of Daz_Hockey's statements i figured out what is wrong with you its jealously. what would the world be like if the best didnt let it be known whos the boss. when england had some power they did the same thing then the poeple that broke away from you saved your asses in wwII. just be happy you dont speak german or russian, cuz without the usa thats what would have happened to your little island.
