~ The King's Speech ~

by Tina~in_ut




If you have not seen The King's Speech yet, you must!  My hubby wanted to see it and I hadn't even heard of it.  I'm so glad I went.  It is well written and superbly acted, if I do say so myself!  (And it has NOTHING to do with the fact that I love Colin Firth!)  It is about a small piece of history and so interesting. 

Also, here's an interview of Lionel Logue's (Geoffrey Rush's character) grandson, Mark!  Click Here!

    TINA: This movie looks really interesting! I'll probably wait until it comes out on cable to see it though..and not because of Colin Firth..lol..he actually looks pretty good in this trailer!

    MO: You look GORGEOUS! I just saw a Maxine cartoon that asked if shivering could be considered exercise ;) I hope you've got your layers on! LOL @ looking like Randy from A Christmas Story..just stay upright! Sending you lots of warmth from AZ! :)

    террористических террорист-смертник обвиняют в наступлении на Москву аэропорта, который убил 35 человек и ранено 152 больше, сообщает русская государственное телевидение....

    translation:

    terrorist suicide bomber blamed for attack on the Moscow airport, which killed 35 people and wounding 152 more, according to Russian state television.

    just look at that language....I have always been intrigued by how differently we all communicate....

    DEE DEE...maybe the royal dentist DID implant her...could explain why Charles and Andrew look nothing alike (lucky for Andrew)!!

    Morning BEBBI!

    ZONA...I thought you were gonna send some warm air.

  23. DeeDeeJanuary 24, 2011 at 2:17 PM

    ok...we have some confusion her....the Queen Mother (avatar)married the stammering King after his brother abdicated to marry American Wallis Simpson....

    The Queen Mother has Elizabeth and Margret. (daughters) who becomes queen when her father dies....she is very young at the time....

    The current Queen...Liz and Margret's Mother becomes Queen Mother....

    Charles...Andrew.. Anne..and Edward are QE2 and Prince Philips chirrens

    Everyone is inbred except for Prince Harry.. Diana's son...whos father was not her husband Prince Charles...but her lover James Hewitt...

    Yay for Harry!!

    Dee Dee:

    Just one point of clarification to reduce owl confusion further:

    You said:

    "the Queen Mother (avatar) married the stammering King after his brother abdicated to marry American Wallis Simpson...."

    Actually, the future Queen Mother married the future George V (the stammering King) in 1923, 12 years before his brother abdicated and he took over the throne.

    Bonachichi: Why's it impossible to fly anywhere now? Because of the bomb in Russia? and HELLO!! :)

    MO: HELLO! :)

    DeeDee..you lost me...too much royal for my blood. I am commoner through and through... :)And, that's my story and I'm sticking to IT.

    Okay..have a great night everyone.

    Mo Mo Mo, what a beauty you are!!
    Your comments had me cracking up!

    Tina, I have heard about the "King's Speech" for some ding dong reason I thought they were talking bout Martin L King...Duh. I need to pay closer attention to the "trailers".
    It looks very interesting. I usually wait for the movies to come out on DVD, but I think I will try to find this in the theaters.

    I spent almost 2 hrs at the Orthodontist today. I had all kinds of ex-rays and goopy impressions. I go back next Mon. for more impressions. I am being fitted for " Invisalign". I am so excited! Soon I will be able to smile along with the rest of you :):):):). Very rarely do you see my teeth in any picture. My teeth are strong & healthy, but I have a gap and my teeth are starting to flare more. I thought I was too old to have braces, but someone in the nest made me realize I could do it and that I deserved it. Hooray!! Thanks DeeDee, I won't tell anyone how nice you really are :)

    Uh....Mary! I had braces not too long ago! It's no big deal! Hubby had them too.....and two of the three kids....we ran out of money so the last kid couldn't have any! :)~

    Uh....DeeDee! WAKE THE HELL UP!!!! The old hag fell in the shower!!!! ...has a gash in her head somewhere.....I WANNA KNOW IF UR ALRIGHT!!!~

    Robert~ That was just a tad anal if you ask me~ lq~

    Well I'd love to crack a joke at DeeDee's expense but I just can't. I wonder though, does she get one of those nifty gauze turbans wrapped round her head??

    Bebbi (if you're around)I didn't mean literally "impossible" to fly, but I'm betting security's going to be a lot more difficult. And I always thought the Russians and Israeli's had the best security. Go figure.

    Tina: Oh, shit! You are right, and I should have kept my mouth shut. Because I said George V, when it was actually George VI !!!

    Sorry, Dee Dee!

    The Queen Mum still married him long before Edward VIII abdicated, but one should not try to correct a factual error by introducing another error! LOL!
