Umm... yeah, that's it. See, it's the kilts! I mean, how can I
possible pay attention to anything else when a bunch of men in
skirts
with nothing on underneath go running by? I mean really, I think
you're asking too much of a girl! <
Oh, so it was a deliberate mistake to draw the attention of the
competitors in the next Highland Games? Does that mean that my joke
about NY, etc. being part of California will lead to my being
mobbed
by a bunch of beach bunnies? I can but hope... ;-)
Okay, so that probably won't work as an excuse, but it might.
Either way, I'll be sure to apologize to Her Majesty for my
blunders
the next time I see her! *Cheeky Grin* <
Or you could get Tom Clancy to do it for you; considering the
number
of times he's used members of the royal family as characters, he
should be used to it by now...
Oops! Have to run. My hubby's burning King George in effigy

Does he know the Clerihew about the poor, sick gentleman (in case
you
didn't know, modern opinion is that GIIIR wasn't mad, but suffering
from a serious liver disease that produced the symptoms in
question)?

Have fun, dear Californian... <eg>
Phil, remembering an Arnold Roth cartoon that gave a modern version
of that famous signal from Revolutionary history: "One if by land,
two if by sea, three if no opinion..."
Californian? That is almost as insulting as calling a scott irish. :D
Thank God we have Mel Gibson over here to show us true British
History.
Now if you two don't behave yourselves I'll smack you both upside the
head. :D
