Queen Elizabeth Makes Royal Visit To The Mushroom Kingdom

By B-Side in

According to a British tabloid (and you know how reputable those are), Queen Elizabeth II has become the latest convert to the wonders of the Wii. Allegedly Prince William received the gaming system from his commoner girlfriend, Kate Middleton, and grandma was only too eager to have a go at it. A palace source claims that after a delightful lunch at Sandringham, HM Queen Elizabeth "thought the Nintendo looked tremendous fun and begged to join in." He then added, "GIVE US A KISS, LUV!"

Okay, maybe that last bit didn't happen, but apparently The Queen was a bona-fide whiz with Wii bowling; although, still no word on whether or not she let out a resounding "BOOYAH!" after scoring a turkey. Nevertheless, we know who'll be first in line when Nintendo releases their much anticipated game, Wii Afternoon Tea with Scones.

Fantastic! I'm starting a Wii Bowling League (first Wednesday of every month, starting Feb. 6th). I'll invite HM to join us. Perhaps she'll be a dear and bring your bloody camera.

Hicks - Is Special K one of the bowlers? Do you bitches have bowling shirts? I still have mine from a league I was in eons ago. I had a big Blue Ball. HA.

HB, I had a big Blue Ball, too!
Did Elizabeth bring in a bunch of old people to watch the new fangled technology?
What is up with the hat?

hb - why does that not surprise me? And yes, SpecialK is in the league. In fact, we have matching bowling shirts from when we used to work together, back in the day.

She does everything in a hat b/c it's her "style". Just like Tucker Carlson and his ridiculous bowties. Plus- she the Queen of England,and can pretty much do/wear whatever she wants so... BOOYAH!
