Oof!
Hey sj! How are you?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
So, the problem with Edward VII (or VIII) was that he was committing adultery and therefore couldn't be Defender of the Faith? And they are now saying that that isn't a problem for Charles because it just isn't, stop asking questions?
Oooh, I never did understand how Victoria ended up on the throne. Neat.
The Princess Aiko thing is very interesting in a glad I don't live there way. Is the Emperor of Japan more than a figurehead?
I wish I could remember the name of the Egyptian woman who had herself declared a man for purposes of being Pharoah. Her son obliterated her name from all the monuments he could when he took over (by violent coup, I believe), but I thought it was still in my brain.

I'm getting the pig!
vw, that's GREAT news! I think you should order more dvds now.
sj, when will your computer be hooked up? Tomorrow? Glad you're all moved, I'm sure it's a huge relief.
Too. Many. Meetings. I almost fell asleep in the last one.

Up with the sun
did anyone else hear the NPR story about the monarch of Japan?
I heard that too. It's fascinating, both because Japan is such a modern country iin some ways but has (overgeneralization alert!) such a traditional view of women, and because of the idea that she has to start now to prepare for the possibility she may be Empress in 40 years.
