[b]HOW TO BE A BRITISH MONARCH[/b]

[b]1. Go to the nearest balcony.[/b]
Wave

For the properly tight wrist motion, pretend to unscrew a lightbulb. If you have no idea how to change a lightbulb - and why would you? - pretend to polish an orange.

[b]2. Always carry scissors.[/b]
If you pass a hospital, school, or agricultural research center, open it.

[b]3. To keep the continent "on its toes", occasionally hint that you are making military plans for "another crack at the Hun."[/b]

[b]4. To maintain the correct somber "royal air" during coronations, weddings, funerals, imagine your parents having sex.[/b]

[b]5. If anyone tries to start a conversation with you, turn to the staff and announce, "Off with his head!"[/b]
In the modern era, alas, your order may not be obeyed. But you will have reminded the public that no one is supposed to speak to a monarch without being spoken to first - the best perk of your job. Don't give it up.

[b]6. View skeptically your oldest child's suggestions for "exciting" new recreations.[/b]
Do not redeem gift certificates for lessons in skydiving, Grand Prix auto racing, mountain climbing, or bull-fighting.

[b]7. Feel free to have sex with any of your subjects or staff.[/b]
However, do expect to have anything you say or do in the bedroom to appear in the next issue of [i]Hello![/i], [i]News of the World[/i], or [i]The National Enquirer[/i].

[b]8. Once a year, generate a scandal to keep the respectable media interested.[/b]
Remember, you have a responsibility to the British economy. A year without a royal indiscretion could trigger massive unemployment amoung the empire's journalists, ink suppliers, and mug manufacturers.

If necessary, confide humiliating personal secrets to a "trusted confidant", preferably over analog cell phone.

[b]9. Once a century, abdicate.[/b]
