I understand he told Tiger Woods one of the advantages bowling has over golf is that you seldom lose a bowling ball or drive it in the wrong lane.

I don't want to believe in fantasy and fake history, especially that created by Monarchs, no one becomes a mechanic in 3 weeks and her service only came once it was over, she enlisted weeks before the surrender and never left the castle overnight.

""She was enlisted as 230873 Second Subaltern Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor in the Auxiliary Territorial Service, the ATS, [March, 1945] and sent to train as a transport officer at Camberley. The course was three weeks and Princess Elizabeth did not associate too closely with her fellow trainees.

She lunched in the officers' mess and slept the night at Windsor; 50 years later, her grandsons would eat cadet food, iron their own uniforms, polish their own boots and be shouted at on the drill square.

Despite her kid-glove treatment, Princess Elizabeth greatly appreciated her spell in the ATS, believing it gave her a confidence she had previously lacked

The war in Europe was now drawing to a close and on May 8, 1945, the two princesses were allowed out of the Palace with their Guards officer friends to mingle with the crowds in the Mall and join in the shouts of "We want the King""

It seems Obama has difficulty utilizing umbrellas.

At least the Pope’s umbrella is large enough to cover both himself and the holder. It is ridiculous to look at the Marine standing in the drizzle while 0bama is covered.

“It seems Obama has difficulty utilizing umbrellas.”

Or most anything else with moving parts.

You people are being unfair to the President, it was the Secret Service that made the decision to not allow the President to handle his own umbrella.

This photo shows some of the terror and confusion involved in the President's early attempts to perform his own umbrella duties, after this event the Secret Service gave training to the President, but eventually decided that it was best to just keep umbrellas from him for the duration of his Presidency.

In England the Queen gets lots of practice holding an umbrella. Obama is too good for such a human thing as holding an umbrella. This tells volumes about the man.

Did you hear about the Dalai Lama walking into a pizza shop? He said, “Make me one with everything.”

The boy is not smart enough to handle an umbrella on his own.

Remember that Memorial Day speech when obama was making it in that lightning storm and the crowd was covering their heads with their seats? He was holding his own umbrella.
