happy birthday to us...

We are two today. It's hard to believe that we have been at this blogging lark for two whole years. We have met lots of lovely people over the years, and for the most part it has been a real pleasure. I was looking back over some of our posts the other day, and I thought we would celebrate our birthday by reposting an old post. I always thought it was quite amusing.

By the way, we turned down Typepad's kind offer of compensation. I think the service is great, and rarely have any problems with it. I wonder how many of you asked for the maximum amount.

royal scandal from 18 November 2003

I was surprised to finally find out what the latest royal scandal is all about from the front page of The Sun. I thought there was some kind of gagging order in place. Apparently Prince Charles was caught in a 'compromising position' with a manservant. I wonder what they mean? Prince Charles giving someone a blow job? Who really cares about this stuff? I suppose this is some kind of Princess Di backlash, which reminds me of the theory that my sister had when Natalie Wood died. Do you remember that Robert Wagner, Natalie Wood's husband, used to star in a detective series with Stephanie Powers in the 1970s, well my sister was convinced that Wagner and Powers conspired to murder their respective partners so that they could be together. She did not think it was a coincidence that shortly after Natalie Wood accidently drowned, Powers' long time partner, William Holden, also died, in some kind of accident involving a coffee table. Absolutely nothing we said could dissuade her from her theory, she would merely nod sagely and say, "I think the facts speak for themselves."
