sidewinder Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) Here I was expecting a full playlist of Norwegian Death Metal. Personally, I was hoping she might have Sun Ra's Horseshoe Tavern Toronto 10CD set on there. Or Allen's 4 'Develin Tune' boxes Edited May 23, 2009 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardbopjazz Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Wow, the Queen also has a gold plated wii The Royal Wii by Mike Krumboltz Buzz up! The Nintendo Wii has positioned itself as the gaming console for everybody. As it turns out, that includes the Queen of England. Well, sort of. It's not like Her Royal Highness went down to Wal-Mart and bought one with her summer job savings. Rather, she was given a special version by gaming company THQ. Wii are definitely amused. What makes the Queen's "Royal Wii" different? It's gold-plated, sucka! None of that lame white plastic for Buckingham Palace — the Queen needs her bling! Gaming blog Joystiq reports that the gaming company is hopeful that the PR stunt "will amuse Queen Elizabeth." Meanwhile, Geek.com writes that the gift is actually meant to build awareness for the upcoming game, Big Family Games. An ulterior motive? What?!? As the geeks put it, "for a game that is meant to include the whole family from kids to grandparents what better family to send it to than The Royal Family in England." According to Game Revolution, Big Family Games is a collection of mini-games, including "golf, tennis, ladder golf, lawn darts, horseshoes, bocce," and more. So far, search interest is rather scant. However, should the Queen declare her love for the gift, expect the title to get a right honorable boost in the Buzz. Silly as that sounds, it's not out of the realm of possibility -- according to insiders, she was "addicted" to playing Prince William's Wii last Christmas. Now she'll have one of her own.

Shrdlu Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 I heard she sent an email the other day too. The old Spitting Image had a good one about the Queen and that asshole Phil The Greek going to an ATM (for the first time). A 20 pound bill comes out and she says "Oooh, Phillip, it's got my picture on it!". So dopey old Phil says "Does it? Let me try, and see if I can get one with my picture on it."
