- Personally, if i had a choice, i'd rather have mountains and fjords
- than Queen Elizabeth. (Actually, we have a King and Queen ourselves.
- Hardly anyone notices because they're so boring, which is actually the
- way i like them.) A few reasons:
-
- -Mountains and fjords never make speeches.
-
- -They never ask for a salary.
-
- -Their houses never burn down.
-
- -No one ever asks them to pay income tax.
-
- -No one ever makes big-ear jokes about them.
-
- -They never get state visits from Nancy Reagan, or anyone else.
-
- -They never, ever, say things like "1992 is not a year on which I
- shall look back with undiluted please."
-
- -They cost relatively little to maintain.
-
- -They don't have marital problems.
-
- Most important of all:
- -They don't have children.
