Sir Ben
Actor Ben Kingsley chastised a German journalist who called him Mr. Kingsley: "It's Sir Ben. I've not been a Mister for two years."
Sir Ben is a member of that select company that includes such cultural luminaries as Sir Mick Jagger, Sir Paul McCartney, and Sir Elton John.
That members of the so-called "Royal Family" continue to receive recognition, respect, and huge amounts of cash in the supposedly enlightened twenty-first century astounds me. "Prince" Charles, "Queen" Elizabeth, and all the rest are nothing but a pack of worthless parasites. The "honors" they bestow deserve contempt. Sir Ben indeed!
And don't ask my opinion of Lady Di, the People's Princess. It might provoke an apoplectic seizure.
