What Does One Get a Queen?
Yo. Find somebody that knows a buncha songs that old ladies like and upload a shitload of them on an Ipod... President and First Lady Obama gave Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II a video iPod with inscription, songs uploaded and accessories, plus a rare musical songbook signed by Richard Rodgers. Uploaded onto the iPod: Photos from the Queen's 2007 White House State Visit Photos from the Queen's 2007 Jamestown, Va., Visit Photos from the Queen's 2007 Richmond, Va., Visit Video from the Queen's 1957 Jamestown Visit Video from the Queen's 2007 Jamestown Visit Video from the Queen's 2007 Richmond Visit Photos from President Obama's Inauguration Audio of then-state senator Obama's speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, and Audio of President Obama 2009 Inauguration Address Oh. Your speeches. How...lovely. Thanks so much... Britain's Press Association reports that the Royal couple gave the Obamas "a silver-framed, signed photograph of themselves." Calm down, Michelle. At least it's a nice frame... UPDATE: And the Obama team confirms that these show tunes were also uploaded on Ye Olde Queen's iPod, as first reported by the AP: "Oklahoma!"
