Deepest respects to a fine lady.

I second that.

She really stepped up to the plate and performed with dignity, grace and class.

A great Queen and woman.

I will do terrible things to protect myself and all that I've worked for.
But even in your deepest, darkest nightmares you can't imagine the horrific things I'll do to protect my family.

God Speed to The Queen Mum. What a Regal Lady. The world is a dimmer place without her. I have always held her in High Esteem as a genuinely Good person. It was sad news when I learned of her passing early this afternoon.

A nice thread on Twitchy: Queen Elizabeth II – Twitter Tributes

Paddington makes an appearance, BTW.

Rest in peace, your majesty. You admirably kept your vow to your people.

Paddington Bear is a fictional character in children's literature. He first appeared on 13 October 1958 in the children's book A Bear Called Paddington and has been featured in more than twenty books written by British author Michael Bond, and illustrated by Peggy Fortnum and other artists


There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Flying Toaster was referring to Winnie the Pooh.

Winnie was an actually bear, bought by a Canadian soldier during WWI. The bear was named after Winnipeg, the soldiers home town. The bear travelled to England with the soldier. Quite the story.
