Barack Obama gives Elizabeth II an Ipod

[alexandral]

A shiny new video iPod with "Oklahoma!, Some Enchanted Evening, Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, I Could Have Danced All Night, Maria, The Sound of Music, Hello, Dolly!, Cabaret, Send in the Clowns, If I were a Rich Man and Don't Cry for Me Argentina." was presented by President Obama to the Queen. Apparently she already had an iPod, since 2005. Read more here

Also, Michelle Obama broke the protocol by giving the Queen a hug - AND NO-ONE FAINTED!!! Yet.

I'm now having visions of the Queen with her iPod singing along to "Don't Cry for Me Argentina". Sort of like Hugh Grant's Prime Minster dancing in Nr. 10 in "Love Actually". Hee.

Hee! I am enjoying these new world/old world happenings immensely. This is going to be a good year.
