Cool Q Stuff. From the scary ( queen lizzie) to the sublime ( the b&w contestants).

Happy Mute Monday!

Kurt said...

Thank you for reminding readers about the vastly underrated album Queen II, with such masterpieces as "Father to Son," "White Queen" and "The Fair Feller's Master-Stroke."

Aunty Belle said...

Comphrehensive take on Queens...but somewhar' there's a doggie names Queenie who has been left out--doan a lot of ole fellas have a pooch wif' dat name?

I likes the contrast of contemporary and past beauty queens--

Happy MM!

Gypsy~ Happy MM to you too, kiddo.

Troll~ There are all kinds of queens in the world. R will be intersting. What will happen when you run out of letters? Numbers, perhaps?

Kurt~ Like most others I didn't know about queen until Bohemian Rhapsody ravaged it's way through the charts. Since then I have been a fan of the band. I got a kick out of the Black/ White side thing on that album.

NYD said...

A dog named queenie? Doesn't ring a bell. Sorry Aunty.

Grant said...

For R, can you do Rei Ayanami?

Pam said...

Great theme and look! You even have a Miss Oklahoma in there. :)

Megan said...

I too liked the contrast between the new and the old.

moi said...

Very cool. Love the Dolls. Within every man, straight or gay, I do believe there exists just the wee urge to go a little queeny. Happy MM!

Jenny said...

this just shows how hard it must be to understand the English Language.... One word and sooo many choices. Great pic and happy happy Mute Monday!

These queens do nothing for my bishop. So it looks like I'll have to pawn it off in another game.

Serena said...

I love queens. It's a girl thing, I suppose. "Balls!" said the queen. "If I had 'em, I'd be king.":)

The Java Junkie said...

A most excellent grouping of Queens! Happy MM!

Carla said...

That's great! After the first couple pics, wasn't quite sure where you were going to go with that, but must say, certainly didn't disappoint.

Mona said...

Ah! Well, its true. I am online through the night sometimes. I have a sleep disorder called insomnia.

NYD said...

Grant~ I'm slightly embarressed about this because she is an anime charecter, but I'd do her for free.

Pamokc~ Them Oakie beauties sure do get around.

Megan~ I loiked the contrast between the goils and da boyz.

Moi~ Sure I go queeny. About every 28 days or so.

AB~ Try explaining that to my students.

Ree~ Very succinct. Is this one of them things where I have to visit you to get the rest of the messege?

PUG~ Never, never pawn off the bishop!

Serena~ LOL! And if I could tell jokes like that, I'd be a jester.

JJ~ Did you get the recipie?

Carla~ Thanks. I aim to intrigue.

Mona~ go get some sleep, dear

Things I do.

It's been said, By John Donne (and I'm sure that we could include the women folk in this phrase) that; "No man is an island...
