    Meanwhile, back at the Castle, Mz O touches HRH. Is this an act of war? An event of eternal damnation? A breach of protocol ? A gesture of kindness? Two women surprised by their fondness for each other?

    If Michelle came to my house to deliver an iPod filled with some songs she liked - and thought I might, too, - I'd be OK with her "guiding" me along as if I were a doddering old idiot who needed help... because I am. But, the queen, please.

    Someone please tell her to not do that in Thailand or Japan. Hilarity might ensue.

    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    Hmmm.... tea bagging congress, I like this idea, especially when it involves U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter. My god, this is hilarious.

    Yeah, just read it. Off with her hands and then her head.

    YOU DO NOT TOUCH HER MAJESTY! SHE DOES NOT TOUCH YOU! (That's why she wears gloves)

    Bloody colonials.

    So there is room for theological argument as to whether the American reciprocity of touch was allowable given the social dynamics of the situation. (Less explicable was when President George W. Bush winked at the Queen.)


    Also I love the caption. Mickey O is about 6 foot tall and black, Madge is about 4' 6" and white..hilarious.

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    According to the press, 1960 called and it wants its monarch back.

    When Michelle Obama put her arm round the Queen at Buckingham Palace, some of the more excitable elements of the media - particularly the Americans - suggested she may have been guilty of a breach of protocol.

    They missed the real story, however. What was far more interesting was that the Queen put her arm round the First Lady.

    It is less than 20 years ago that the Australian Prime Minister was branded “the Lizard of Oz” for committing the supposedly heinous crime of putting his hand on the Queen’s back during an official tour of Australia.

    Now the Queen is not just putting up with physical gestures of affection from a woman she has only just met, but is reciprocating with one of her own. [...]

    A breach of protocol? Hardly. Buckingham Palace was very relaxed today about the incident, and attitudes there have changed significantly since the days of Mr Keating and his lese-majesty. And no, they don’t issue instructions to people about not touching the Queen.

    “This was a mutual and spontaneous display of affection and appreciation between The Queen and Michelle Obama,” said a Palace spokeswoman.

    At least she didn't shout "Yo Queenie!"

    Or try to sell her crack or use the word "mother" in an obscene combination. I hear American negros do such things.

    Aye 'Moms' always shouting Mutha...... this and Mutha...... that all day long.

    And, despite what you might think, those restaurants are exactly like restaurants run by white people, with tables and chairs, and food, and everything:
    I remember this from a year or two back. Hilarious.

    I'm starting to think the tobacco tax was actually also a hand out to the cigarette manufacturers because, while people may smoke less packs due to the taxes, the taxes on rolling tobacco increased $25 per pound, which effectively raises the price of rolling tobacco by about 100%. So, people who save money by rolling their own are going to be saving practically nothing now and may go back to packs.

    Wow, a tax that is 90-100% of the base price. Unbelievable.
