About Jim Creech
I love Myrtle Beach for lots of reasons: the food (try Joe's Hamburgers and Benito's Brick Oven Pizza), the shopping, all of the attractions (the grand kids love MagiQuest) but most of all I love the sand and waves.
At least a couple times a summer my daughter, three grandsons and I go to Myrtle Beach from Raleigh, NC. We go boogie boarding, jump waves and build sand castles. In the evening we'll walk over to the Apache Pier where I can sit back with a cold beer and listen to the live music. During intermission they have games and activities for the kids.
Jim Creech purchased this townhome in 1992
Why Jim Creech chose Kingston Plantation
This townhome is for family. It's a haven from the busyness of life, a place where we can come and relax, have fun and reconnect. I think you'll recognize that sense of being home when you walk in the door.
What makes this townhome unique
I love the windows and views here! There are a lot of properties in Myrtle Beach, but I truly believe this one is special. It's spacious and comfortable inside and out. There's room to come together and room to spread out.
Guestbook comments from the owner
We really enjoyed our stay at this location in Kingston Plantation. The beach was less than 2 minutes walk away. The pool was even closer. The location was fantastic- so many restaurants and activities. We were relaxed and busy at the same time! The house was gorgeous. We ad everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms. Beds were comfy. I plan to book again for next year for the same week as soon as I can. The owners were great to work with! A father an daughter team who together answered every question I had.

Score from 67 reviews Very good
Central location, large room
Well located, wonderful staff at check in, very clean, offered parking onsite at no extra charge. Little balcony and shuttered door and windows allowed us to sleep without airconditioning. The spa next door was closed for renovations which was disappointing.
Room size very small and impractical for two travellers with luggage. Bathroom was of good size however shower stall was incredibly small, just as well there was a hand held shower as you could not turn around.
Very good location. Breakfast included Parking included Clean facility with friendly staff
I wish I had a bigger bed
Very little
1.Air conditioning wasn't working-room was like an oven. Required window open to get cool-see 2. 2.Hotel bar is actually an open-air loud music bar, open until the early hours. 3.Booked for 4 nights-left after 1
Good location to visit all the sites of Chaves
Room too hot - air conditioning ineffective
Comfortable hotel close to old city.
Inconvenient if you have a lot to take to the room as car park is not under hotel and there is no lift access to car park.
very good location
Clean comfortable hotel great location when touring, wifi great even on second floor bedroom,
Noisy bar under hotel at rear, coffee at breakfast was terrible but ul live,
Staff and location where the best
No frige in room
very nice hotel for a very good price//breakfast was very good//overall highly recommended if you are in the area//parking is on the street but worked out ok//
Good position for looking around the town, Sat Nav will not find hotel position and nobody in the town will know the hotel as AJ you have to ask for the full name of hotel. Reception staff excellent and very helpful
Breakfast was fair but nothing fresh, Smoking still allowed in bar area downstairs so not desirable unless you smoke. Bar staff a bit cocky, you pay after playing pool but no sign to inform you there is a payment or how much.

Good lube for hand jobs
Not joking. I like giving my boyfriend hand jobs but without lube he gets rug burn on his penis. Which is unfortunate. I used lotion before and that worked okay, but he didn't like his penis smelling like cookies. The lube we use for sex dries out pretty quick then gets all weird and like forms tiny balls of dried lube that get EVERYWHERE including under his foreskin and stuck in his pubic hair. Which ick.So would unscented lotion be the best? I'm assuming guys will know best for this :p
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
Lotion is terrible. Water based lube dries fast. If you keep a little glass of water near why and dip fingers in occasionally it helpsBut an oil is better since you aren't worried about latex. I suggest coconut oil. Cheap, natural, smells good, good for skin, edible (and good for you).
What Guys Said 11
He's uncircumcised and he gets rug burn? Are you really rough with it? Does he have phimosis or something? Ideally the foreskin should glide back and forth with your hand.Personally, I never use lube. In fact it feels far better without lube. I've never had any kind of "rug burn".
It's more the bottom skin that doesn't move as much that gets rug burn. Like the outside skin, it isn't like the head of his penis is getting rug burn. It just takes a while for him to get off from a hand job.
Hmmm. I've never experienced that.Try coconut oil. It's great stuff. Great to eat, nice and slippery, great for everything, really. Use refined coconut oil if you don't want to smell like coconut.

Whenever gasoline prices are on the rise, so is the political interest in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the largest single stockpile of crude oil in the world. Some argue that part of its approximately 700 million barrels should be released into the market to help relieve high prices at the pump. Others argue that the Reserve should be carefully husbanded for use in a future crisis. Jerry Taylor, author of "The Case against the Strategic Petroleum Reserve," questions the very need for the SPR and calls not for release, but for total liquidation. Economist Steve Hanke argues that, if we're going to have an SPR, it should be reformed so that it can play a constructive role in crude oil markets.

The "knockout game" - and the media underreporting of it - combines the breakdown of the family with the media's condescending determination to serve as a public relations bureau for blacks. The "game" is a dare in which a young man - all the perps appear to be male people of color, mostly blacks - tries to literally knock out an innocent bystander with one blow. Both National Public Radio and The New York Times say these reports of the "knockout game" being widespread are overblown and do not represent a trend. Really?

ABOUT LAST NIGHT: Wallenda and Reis take to the wire
Date: January 21, 2013
by: Rachel S. O'Hara | Staff Photographer
The Circus Sarasota Gala got very interesting Friday night during the live auction portion of the evening.
Michael Klauber auctioned bracelets, yacht excursions, dinners at Michael's On East and a trip see Nik Wallenda cross the Grand Canyon.
Meanwhile, performer Nik Wallenda and CEO of Circus Sarasota Pedro Reis added an extra item to the live auction: the two would take to the hire wire if enough money was raised. Reis had not been on a high wire for 30 years.
Donations spiked as attendees hoped to witness Reis return to the high wire alongside Wallenda.
People began raising their hands to donate to the cause. Even as Reis, Wallenda and Blake Wallenda, Nik's cousin, climbed to the wire, people continued to raise their hands to give money to the Sailor Circus.
Watch our video to see how Reis did back up on the wire after 30 years.

Solomon Elimimian is poised to make CFL history Thursday night.
The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are going to the Grey Cup. Hamilton defeated the Montreal Alouettes 40-24 in today's East Division final at Tim Hortons Field.
The Calgary Stampeders will need to beat the Edmonton Eskimos on Sunday to get to next week's Grey Cup in Vancouver.
Peter Dyakowski will make his 2014 debut Sunday when the Hamilton Tiger-Cats host the Montreal Alouettes in the East Division final, after suffering a serious knee injury in last year's Grey Cup game.
A little more than 24 hours after the Montreal Alouettes embarrassed the B.C. Lions 50-17 in the CFL's East Division semifinal, general manager Wally Buono and head coach Mike Benevides began the autopsy on a season that started with the promise of another Grey Cup and ended with a resounding thud.
The Eskimos defence recorded five interceptions and Kendial Lawrence had an 84-yard punt return touchdown on special teams as Edmonton beat the Saskatchewan Roughriders 18-10 in the CFL's West semifinal.
A record-breaking season has earned Solomon Elimimian a rare nomination.
The Calgary Stampeders carry momentum into CFL West playoffs with 33-16 win over the B.C. Lions
He hasn't done a post-mortem on the entire season yet, but Winnipeg Blue Bomber coach Mike O'Shea confirms quarterback Drew Willy was the author of at least part of his own misfortune Saturday.
Ricky Ray hit Chad Owens on a 69-yard TD strike to rally the Toronto Argonauts to a stunning 34-33 win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Friday night.
The return of running back Jon Cornish and the resurgence of the Calgary Stampeders defence after a couple of porous performances were the difference in a 14-7 win over the B.C. Lions on Saturday.

Bulgaria to Press for More EU Funds in Budget Bargaining
As EU member states and institution are coming at loggerheads over the 2014-20 EU budget framework, Bulgaria is expected to ask for more EU funds at its disposal for the period.
EU leaders are meeting in Brussels Thursday for what is bound to be a very difficult European Council.
Large net EU donors like Germany and eurosceptic countries like the UK are asking for a decrease of the EU's 7 year budget framework.
The European Commission, European Parliament and member states like Bulgaria have on the other hand argued for a budget increase.
They have asked for keeping the EC's initial EUR 1.033 T framework that some member states want to see significantly reduced.
Bulgaria in particular will argue for an increase of cohesion funds and agricultural subsidies.
Bulgarian PM Boyko Borisov has already stated that he will request about EUR 0.6 B more for cohesion.
If EU leaders do not manage to agree on a 7 year budget framework, the EU's budgets will have to be negotiated year for year.

Review quote
"She writes with a beautiful clarity, an elemental humanity and a marvellous, limpid, funny, apprehension of what goes on" -- Jane Shilling Sunday Telegraph "Some of the most honest, intuitive and exacting fiction, long or short, of our time" -- Tom Gatti The Times "Munro's bold, unflinching narratives have taken the short story places many a novelist has feared to tread... That she does this in a style both calm and deliberate, fluid yet tightly controlled, stark yet compassionate, is what makes her insights into the human condition so profound" -- Mary Crockett Scotsman "Written with veteran assurance, brimming with intensely believable characters and rich social detail, these dispatches from the most unsparing reaches of Munro's imagination confirm her acclaimed place on the highest ground of contemporary fiction" -- Peter Kemp Sunday Times "Alice Munro commands enormous respect and almost uncritical adoration from her readers" -- Elaine Showalter Literary Review

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt — we don't call them Brangelina here — aren't the most inconspicuous Power Couple, and they've sure become a force to be reckoned with since they hooked up in 2004.
They certainly didn't need one another to become famous, but ever since their union after co-starring in Mr. and Mrs. Smith and posing as a married couple in Steven Meisel's W Magazine Domestic Bliss spread, they've been unstoppable.
What I admire about this couple is their ability to channel old Hollywood glamor so effortlessly. Brad reminds me of a young Robert Redford and Angie can easily embody any sex-pot actress, say Brigitte Bardot. Of course, I'll never forget Angie's less-classy fashion choices, but with the power of Brad behind her, she's transformed into a sophisticated woman, a sensitive mother, and poised actress. She sometimes dresses overly mature — hello, she's a St. John model — but I'll take that over goth any day. I'll bet Brad would agree.

In the synoptic gospels Jesus' healings and exorcisms are called dúnamis. English versions translate this term as "wonder", "virtue", "miracle". The Greek word means "strength", "power". The words "dynamo" and "dynamite" are derived from it.
I'm not big on New Year's resolutions and it's been years since I spent hours on the first day of the year calling everyone in my address book. The truth is, the annual resetting of the calendar brings me more pain than joy. I've long rejected the samsara influenced myth that sees the first day of January as some sort of magical reset button. Oh, I wish we did have an opportunity to do some things over, but experience has taught me that this is absolutely impossible.
The Adventist church, like many conservative Christian denominations, takes an official position condemning homosexuality. The 1999 General Conference Annual Council approved a position statement, found on the church's website at http://www.adventist.org/beliefs/statements/main-stat46.html that states:
As a young mother, I would often sing my baby to sleep with the song about Jesus blessing the children.
I had a colleague (this was years ago) who was assigned to a small town church whose members opposed any celebration of Christmas. When December came, the church members would drive past and peer in the parsonage windows, to check whether the new pastor's family had Christmas decorations. So when my friend's wife insisted they have a Christmas tree for their little boy, they had to set it up in the bathtub, that being the only room the church members couldn't readily see into!
One of the characteristics of the gospel According to John is that the main events in the life of Jesus are connected to Jewish feasts or specific times. The expulsion of the money changers and traders from the temple happened on a Passover (2:13). The feeding of the five thousand took place on another Passover (6: 4). Apparently Jesus did not go up to Jerusalem for this one. The healing of the paralytic at the portals of the Pool of Bethesda in Jerusalem was done on "a feast of the Jews" (5: 1).
This season's Republican primary battle makes one wonder if the leading contestants have secretly signed a deal with a reality television promoter. It appears that every day brings a story more shocking than the previous revelation as the drama intensifies by the minute. While the plot thickens, the needle on the public shockometer hardly registers as people's sensitivities are seemingly immunized to the bizarre dysfunction.
Georgia on His Mind
In Matthew 5, Jesus talks of the importance of little things, things as small as the dot over an i. Lynne Truss in her 2004 best seller makes the same point in the title of her book," Eats, Shoots and Leaves". Is this a statement about a murderous dinner guest? Or, sans comma, could it describe the diet of a panda?
Recently I watched an interview with the polished and handsome Mitt Romney. He'll quite possibly be the nominee for his party next year, and even if he isn't, he'll have left a big footprint on the American political landscape. I don't like everything he stands for (if you can figure out what that is), but he's clearly smart and pragmatic and, from what I can tell, at least as moral as some of the previous inhabitants of that office.
And he's a Mormon.
The gospel According to John invites us to enter an environment quite different from the one we have become accustomed to in the synoptic gospels. In these gospels Jesus preaches about the kingdom of God by means of parables that describe activities and objects of everyday village life. In According to John, as we have already pointed out in previous columns, Jesus preaches himself as the One Sent by the Father. His message is "I Am".
March 25, 2007, marked the bicentennial of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act passed by the English Parliament in 1807. The Act put an end to the trading of African slaves that had gone on unhindered from 1562 when Queen Elizabeth I endorsed the slaving activities of John Hawkins.
Sunday morning delegates to North American Division year-end meetings addressed the Great Controversy Project, a favorite initiative of the General Conference President, Ted Wilson. The project involves raising the money and finding the will for mass distribution of Ellen White's famous book, and many NAD leaders appear to have mixed feelings about it.
"Hope and Wholeness." That, in a phrase, is what the North American Division has embraced as its mission.
Friday morning the North American Division year-end meeting began with a reading of world Adventism's current mission statement, an admirable if somewhat conventional document of about a paragraph in length. Then NAD President Dan Jackson introduced a summary version that would express, for North America, the kernel of the world church's statement.
It was my mentor, Dr. Jack Provansha, who introduced me to Hans Kung, a Catholic theologian from the University of Tubingen. (1) Having read Kung, (and not being struck dead by lightening) I went on to read other serious Catholic theologians such as John Wijngaards, Karl Rahner, Edward Schillebeeck, Anthony Tambasco and more devotional writers such as Father John Powell. I discovered the novels and the 'who-done-it's' by the Catholic sociologist, Andrew Greeley and found these to be a great source for understanding the cultural context of Catholicism.
In the first church where I served as a pastoral intern, Carmen and I always chuckled when we heard in Sabbath School classes the assertion that before the time of the end Billy Graham would accept the Sabbath and join the Seventh-day Adventist church. I don't know the origin of this story (I suspect Emilio Knechtle who was, I think, acquainted with Graham) but it was stated as a fact. It was mentioned frequently, and never questioned: people simply nodded as though it were something every Adventist knew.
The other day I found in a second hand book store a copy of Felipe Fernández-Armesto's Truth. The title and the author caught my attention so I bought it, and I am reading it. Fernández-Armesto does not pretend to tell his readers what truth is. His purpose is to show how through the centuries human beings have searched ways to distinguish truth from falsehood. He has written a history of the search for truth.
"Then they will reply, 'Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?' And he will answer, 'I tell you the truth, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.'" (Matthew 25:44-45)
Consider this thought experiment:
You are placed in a time machine and transported back to Bethlehem shortly after Jesus's birth. You enter the stable and see Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and perhaps a few shepherds. Approaching the baby you kneel and gently ask Him (in your native, modern, non-Aramaic language): "Dear Jesus, What are the solutions to the equation: 3x4 + 20x2 + 50 = 2x4 + 5x2 -4?"
What response do you think you might get?
Throughout his ministry Jesus deliberately and intentionally broke and challenged societal stereotypes and cultural taboos. He spoke to women publically; he encouraged women to speak out publically. He taught women equally with men; he gave them the Spirit of understanding and freedom to study. The apostle chosen by him to take the news of the resurrection to the disciples was a woman. "Go and tell," he said to Mary.

A Point of View: I'm not toasting [insert head-of-state here]
If class hierarchies have flattened, why do we persist with the Loyal Toast, asks Will Self, who has never risen to drink to the health of the Queen or any other head of state.
A few years ago I went to a formal dinner. It was one of those huge corporate events held in one of those huge corporate ballrooms ranged along Park Lane.
What struck me anew as I trudged from the Tube was the gathering density of men wearing black tie and women in formal gowns thronging the pavements. How strange, I ruminated, that whereas once these grand houses were tenanted by a few hundred members of the upper classes for whom formally dressing for dinner was a daily enactment of exclusivity, now every night a few thousand members of the middle classes dress up specially to ape these mores in grand hotels.
Find out more
- A Point of View is usually broadcast on Fridays on Radio 4 at 20:50 BST and repeated Sundays, 08:50 BST
- Will Self is a novelist and journalist
Ours has become a society in which the pantomimes expressive of hierarchy comprise crowd scenes almost exclusively now.
Before dinner, one of these crowd scenes was played out. There were the massed tables, replete with white napery and glinting cutlery swirling away into the gloomy margins of the ballroom. There were the paying guests in their rented clothes, buttering rolls and glugging indifferent Beaujolais. Up on the podium there was a toastmaster in a tight red jacket with gold-embroidered facings, who tapped his mallet and invited us all to stand for the Loyal Toast.
With a certain amount of harrumphing, the company got to its feet and raised its glasses. The toastmaster cried out: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Queen!" and, as one multi-headed supplicant, all present replied "The Queen!" then knocked back another thousand-odd swigs of bin-end Beaujolais.
I say all present, but there was one exception. Me.
I had never risen for the Loyal Toast in my life - and I wasn't about to start then.
The Toast is, of course, by no means exclusive to the Queen - it is drunk for any relevant head of state, whether or not they happen to be present - but in all instances it is an important ritual designed to emphasise the true form of power relations. If you like, it is the rather spooky moment when, from beneath the seemingly level and egalitarian plain of society, there slowly arises the steep-sided and hegemonic pyramid.
Etiquette of the Loyal Toast
The first and principal loyal toast, as approved by the Queen, is simply "The Queen", says Debrett's.
"It is incorrect to use such forms as 'I give you the loyal toast of Her Majesty the Queen'. To obtain the necessary silence, the toastmaster may say, without preamble, 'Pray silence for...'."
No, I have never risen for the Loyal Toast, and unless some apoplectic patriot holds a gun to my head, I doubt I ever will.
Some people, quite reasonably, might observe that my dissent is a bit puerile. This, such folk would argue, is not a medieval act of abasement, the paying of homage to a monarchical despot with a divine right, but merely another of those collective acts that, taken in sum, ensure a degree of social cohesion.
It is not the Queen in her corporeal self that is being toasted - the grand-mumsy Liz Windsor, with her tweed skirts, her corgis and her horse racing card - but the Queen in her symbolic guise. The libation is thus for the figurehead of the nation, and inasmuch as this personifies the entire Commonwealth, the Loyal Toast is in fact to everyone, and thus is an act of simple patriotism that affirms us all as Britons.
Well, that's fair enough - I could go with that, if it was what's really intended.
When Dr Johnson said that "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel", he meant by this no indictment of patriotism - far from it. As a Tory in the days when to be one meant an unswerving commitment to the monarchical principle, the great lexicographer was actually indicting those frauds who cloak themselves in patriotism as glibly as they might in sanctity or charity or any other convenient moral disguise.
"Start Quote
End Quote
The Queen's subjects understand that she is real person confined to an unreal world"
Despite having rather different politics, I too can see a virtue in a genuine and Johnsonian patriotism that places a value on altruism over self-interest, on co-operation over competition, and which exalts the idea that there should be institutions - and attendant customs - that transcend the particular interests not simply of existent social groups, but also present generations.
For, in expressing our loyalty to the nation, we recognise that we hold the land and all that it comprises in trust for those who come after us, and that this stewardship should powerfully restrain our inclinations towards quick fixes and short-term gains.
Nor is my problem with symbolic acts - indeed, I like a symbolic act as much as the next woman or man who seeks a form of words and movement to mediate between feeling and expression, between one's subjective intimation and our social confirmation.
Indeed, I feel quite strongly ambivalent about the Church of England for this very reason. That while it may seem the very essence of anachronism to have one small Christian sect placed at the centre of national life - when that nation comprises many different believers, semi-believers and indeed outright unbelievers - nonetheless, there is something properly spiritual about a priesthood whose remit is to minister to all irrespective of class or creed.
Births, marriages, interments - the Anglicans have a simple way with ritual on these occasions that creates meaning and cohesion, and, if the communion Beaujolais is viewed as a sort of Loyal Toast, then that the Monarch-on-High is present, absent, or indeed doesn't exist at all, can be seen as of secondary importance.
Put this way, the problem with the Queen becomes as clear as a crystal orb.
She is very much present. A real, living woman, who, in the absence of a constitutional role beyond being a fleshly stamp for legislation, is reduced to a tedious go-round of functions that are symbolic only of this: that while our society may pay lip service to equality of opportunity, our fundamental values remain those of inherited wealth and privilege; and that while we may slap on a "call-me-Dave" democratising topcoat, beneath this lies a thick distemper of deference.
Yes, deference is the key - and with each bent knee, each ma'am and sir and Your Majesty, we reaffirm that this is the way things are meant to be.
The difficulty for the monarchy is thus not that they are symbolic - but that unlike the transcendent God of the great monotheisms, they are not symbolic enough.
The Queen's subjects understand that she is a real person confined to an unreal world, and so, as she is shepherded from one perturbation of union jacks to the next, despite all the careful choreography, a credibility gap inexorably yawns wider and wider.
Supporters of status quo are always keen to emphasise the role of the Queen - and other members of the Royal Family - as public servants, and establish their hand-shaking and curtain-swishing is a vital function.
However, this is manifestly untrue. The octogenarian Queen, accompanied by her nonagenarian consort, surrounded by her respectful family, and attended to by her deferential servants is an idol of our own wish fulfilment to which we make obeisance by raising a glass. After all, most of us face old age in a so-called care home, being tended to by migrant workers on minimum wage.
Will's words of the week
Links to Merriam-Webster and Collins dictionaries
The Queen's immediate heir isn't buffing up well as an idol. Poor Charles's messy and public misalliances are compounded by his fruitless attempts to engage - so that with each stab at reality, he rips still more the symbolic cloth.
For those committed to the monarchy, the only solution is to hand the crown down to the next generation, who hopefully can still prove they are sufficiently inauthentic for the role of head of state.
Alternatively, we, the people, could come up with candidates of our own.
I know of a woman who fulfils all the right criteria:
- she's worked for decades in the public service
- for very little financial reward
- and is loved and admired by all who come into contact with her.
She used to deliver my post, and when I realised she had stopped, I was most upset.
I saw her in the street shortly after this and asked what had happened and she explained that since she'd had cancer treatment, she needed a shorter round. She was devoid of self-pity - and I have never heard her complain about anything at all. She hails from the west of Ireland - and some might think this disqualifies her from being our head of state, but as a citizen of the republic of letters, I think I know where my deference is properly due.
Rest assured, were the toastmaster at a formal dinner to announce, "Ladies and gentlemen, the Postwoman", I'd be on my hind legs before you could scream "Treason!"
Here is a selection of your comments
I toast the Queen as I am a loyal subject and as a professional toastmaster. I like to toast the Queen and those present too. I toast at Masonic events wedding and other occasions. I was very glad to see that my five-year-old daughter knows the national anthem and understands that Britain is part of the Commonwealth. My parents are from the West Indies and they like myself are proud of our British heritage and links.
I like Will Self and the way he thinks, but I never seem to arrive at the same conclusions he does. The corporeal monarch makes little difference to the role of the figurehead except to leave a few more republicans undecided. The problem is, what to replace her with? A president? Who picks them? Because you can be sure it won't be us even if we could get a representative democracy going. People in US blame POTUS for the faults of the state and then elect a bigger idiot next time. We, as subjects, have little reason to blame the State for our "choice"(lol) of Govt.
I am sure you will find a few like-minded folks nodding in agreement ("Queenie -- take that!!). However, your initial assessment of simply being puerile was remarkably accurate. By toasting your head-of-state (who happens to be Canada's as well), you are celebrating and wishing longevity not just to your Queen but to your nation and everyone in it, something that can be interpreted to be a most unselfish act if the Toast is said with feeling and meaning. If it is just a rote action, then by all means don't do it. Get a head start on the salad instead.
I am with Will Self in that by preference I would never stand for any member of any royal family. I stand for those who I respect, and that respect has to be earned. In the previous Queens' Jubilee (2002) I attended the anti-monarchy street party and narrowly avoided being arrested by police. However, I now work for an association of disabled people, who face many barriers in society. This association is run by disabled people themselves, a disability which I also share. I campaign on behalf of this sector of society. The question is, as a representative of this community, do I bow the knee, toast the Queen, stand for her dubious honour whenever required in the course of my job? My personal decision is yes, my obligation to assist my struggling community outweigh my personal philosophy. Consequently I'm now one of the organisers of an official Queen's Jubilee street party for disabled people. I don't give a fig about Lizzy, but the party will be a small step forwards for community healing for our particular fractured, stressed, threatened community.
Enjoyed listening to this 'show' on the radio whilst walking home, and it did echo for me how the nightly dressing for dinner of the upper classes has died out with the middle classes replacing it with the dinners and dances and golf club awards ceremonies etc. Don't really think it is in their mindset to be doing occasionally what 'the toffs' cannot afford / be bothered to do, although that is an easy external position to take. Also liked the 'hey' we are really modern' when underneath we are not assertion. Sorry about your house Will and pleased no one was hurt. They dont make them like they used to - but believe yours was a period property so hope it is not too structural an issue.
As a visiting American scholar, I was in England and was at a very splendid dinner courtesy of the governors of a famous English independent school. The headmaster that evening made a toast to "Church and Queen" before dinner began. It was all very nice, and all very British. We do not have such courtesies in the U.S.A., and I must say that events like this one which I was fortunate to attend are sorely lacking state-side. It was a very special evening, a very special dinner, and an occasion in my life which I shall never forget. Thank you to the Board of Governors of this school for such an occasion. Now, to get to know the words of your national anthem, "God Save the Queen," is another matter . . .
For the first time ever, I find myself in complete and utter agreement with Mr Self. On a side note, I've often wondered if the Queen lives under the delusion that everywhere outside the Palace is thronged with happy, flag-waving, bowing serfs, covered with red carpets, fresh flowers, and new linen tablecloths, and smells of fresh paint? After all, that's all she ever experiences when she ventures out to visit us.
Although I fundamentally disagree with your reasons, I respect your right to remain seated when drinking the Loyal Toast. Indeed, as a retired naval officer, I have done the very same thing many times myself but for different reasons, as such is the tradition in the Royal Navy. What I find puzzling is that, holding the views that you do, you accept an invitation to a formal dinner where you must know that such a toast is very likely to be proposed. May I suggest that this smacks of wanting to have your cake and eat it?

DEFINITION of 'Friendly Hands'
A nickname for investors in an IPO who will likely hold onto the security for a long time. Friendly hands alludes to IPO subscribers who are not interested in purchasing the new issue with the hopes of quickly flipping the shares for a quick profit. Long term investment in IPOs tends to reduce stock volatility, thus reducing the chances of a sudden crash in the stock's value.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Friendly Hands'
The opposite of a friendly hands investor would be a flipper, who is more interested in profiting from a hot IPO issue by selling it almost immediately after purchase. In contrast to a flipper, a friendly hand generally tends to look for stable, long-term profits instead of the quick fix. Although they both play very different roles in an IPO placement, both flippers and friendly hands play an important role in the marketplace.
