Actually, my response was, holy crap, we don't keep anyone around long enough.

That was mine too. And I thought Reagan was kind of funny looking. And Ford has the best picture.

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Nature Boy was also the best footbal player out of the bunch. IIRC, he was a Wolverine.
Anyway, none of this surprised me at all. I knew E2 was sitting since at least that time, and there are no term limits on the monarchy after all.

It's one thing knowing it but quite another to see what it means in other countries terms. Just fun that's all. As for E2 she's frequently referred to as QE2 (Queen Elizabeth the second), which is amusing given the ship they named after her.

Hey, I've found another picture of her with another famous American, although I believe this one came from France originally.

How long has he been waiting to become King anyway?
Besides gawking at her lifespan, I do admit to wondering what had Reagan so amused!

Who'd have thought? She used to be somewhat of a hottie back in the JFK and Ford Era...........
Of course, that was before even "I" was born
