    Where in this thread did you get THAT?
    The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.

    I didn't get it from anywhere in the thread. It was just a general statement.

    Like when people yell at cashiers (just as an example) for something beyond the employees control.

    Sorry for the additional post... When I post from my phone it won't let me edit.

    When I was in customer service people would flip out on the cashiers for things they couldn't help. For example, when tim hortons raised the price of coffee .05 cents a cup. Man were people angry but unfortunately there was nothing I could do about it. It's not like I raised the price lol. But when that happens you just have to smile, apologize and wish them a good day... Even if you might want to respond in a different manner lol

    I was watching the tube and the newsreader mentioned that the Queen had spend "60 years on the throne".

    I usually am done pretty quickly, unless I am reading.

    And you think that some one would have at least knocked on the door to check up on her?

    "She's been on the throne for a while, could someone go in and check on her?"

    If she needed assistance would that be where "God, Save the Queen" came from?

    I think even the stuffy old Queen would get a chuckle out of that.

    But I have to admit that she does smile a lot more than she used to. She was always so sullen and grumpy looking in past years. Maybe she's smiling now because she knows that she will soon give up her throne - for whatever reasons.
