Banshees Scream 107 Posted November 14, 2005 I wonder if any Halibut leaders will speak out against this nonsense. I don't suppose these idiots care what people in the West think about their homicidal ravings, but I assume some of them do care what their own religious leaders think. Why would the Halibut Leaders speak out to there people when they are just like them?.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lady Die 63 Posted November 14, 2005 Saw the Queen on TV yesterday at the cenotaph & she looked fighting fit. She'll live to 100 like her mother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windsor 2,142 Posted November 14, 2005 Indeed, she's not doing too badly for 80 (as of April(before Entropy corrects me)). The Duke of Edinburgh is also doing alright for his age. I believe Banshees and co are just clinging on in hope of a carriage accident. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy 5 Posted November 14, 2005 Well, there are a whole lot of Diana fans at Royal Forums and no doubt elsewhere hoping and praying that the Queen outlives Prince Charles. It remains to be seen whether God (or the Invisible Pink Unicorn or the Flying Spaghetti Monster, depending on your worldview) is impressed by the sentiment behind such prayers.

Windsor 2,142 Posted November 14, 2005 It is very unlikely that the Queen will outlive Charles. Lets face it, we've seen the end of any prospect of a young monarch (minus accidents) as they are all now guaranteed to live until their 90s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,142 Posted November 14, 2005 Oh Tempus, always the joker. I had to reword one of my posts today just in case something like this happened. I should have known better. Windsor Rewords above post: It is commonly known that today’s generation are more likely to live longer than previous generations due to healthier lifestyle and better working conditions. It is also widely accepted that the wealthy can expect to outlive the poor due to their healthier diet and living standards. With the Royals qualifying in both (they are alive today and very well off) they could probably all expect to live up until their mid to late 80s at least possibly, even upwards of 90 years. Indeed the late Queen Mother lived to be 101. The more skeptical will, however, argue that other members of the Royal Family died quite young. King George VI died at the relatively young age of 56 in 1952 and Princess Margaret aged 71 in 2002. It must be noted that these particular examples did not lead healthy lifestyles; King George was a heavy smoker and Margaret smoked and drank with rumors of drug taking. So with health and wealth the Royals will live longer. In short, if you are not Prince Harry and you are in the Royal Family you can expect to live a lot longer than most.* *excludes accidents, the occasional assassination attempt and terminal illness.

Windsor 2,142 Posted November 14, 2005 I would imagine they'll put on Prince Philip just to piss me off. My British royalty nominees are Major Bruce Shand (excluded under the unwritten DL rules) and the Earl of Harewood (not exactly famous but quite rich).
