The Queen is dead. Long live the King. I have a feeling Americans are taking the death of Queen Elizabeth more seriously than most of her own subjects. We seem to take the royals as if they are much more than a multi million pound drain on the British treasury and perennial fodder for the gossip rags around the english speaking world.
The Queen was consistent throughout her 70 year reign. She rarely if ever expressed an opinion and put up with fools and charlatans without complaint. 25,000 days of pomp and circumstance and she never flagged while dealing with family dramas in the glare of the public spotlight.
She was a pretty nice girl, but she didn't have much to say. RIP, but let's move on.
