Just wanted you all to know that Ive emailed the Queen (Elizabeth11) asking her to grant knighthoods to some of the forum users on here (you know who you are).This is for their charity work in helping poor newbies like me (and others you know who you are) with their questions which at times seem as basic as it can get.The help is always given with "love"and "understanding" to such a poor men/women starting out on such a journey.So who knows it might now be Sir Mac..Sir Matt etc..Cheers Frankie

Just what Mac needs, another all-knighter

LOL@rharv !!! Good one!!!

But, I do agree with Frankie 100%! Go ahead and email Obama as well. Why stop with the Queen?

Cheers,
Mike

Good thing none of them are Canadian. It's illegal to get bee nighted which is a tad weird seeing as Liz is on all our money and stamps and has a freeway named after her along with 20,000 schools. Well so you have an idea how old I really am my younger sister went to Princess Elizabeth Public School, which is still open today with the same name. And of course the Queen Victoria Hospital, alongside the Queen Vic Tavern. The first is now just called the Vic the latter the bucket 'o blood.

I have to rewrite the words to a Bobby Darin ditty, so It's Mac the Knight.

That says Nicht.

I hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal.

Therefore, even in the unlikely event that she ever offered the title, I'd have to refuse it.


But the sentiment given here is much appreciated.


Thanks, tributeman!

Mac, it may be true that all men are CREATED equal, it has not been my experience that everybody DEVELOPS equally. In the final analysis (whether due to upbringing or personal diligence or intellect or talent or motivation or whatever) some people end up shining brighter than many others.

If knighthood was the only way of recognizing that brightness, I'd have to agree that your name should be on the list. In more than one way, you stand head and shoulders above many who profess to be experts in the same fields as you.
