I love Just Henry Winkler AKA the Fonze. But my question is WHY do you think EVERYONE will already know what an OBE is?????

[Chirs]

I've never had an Out of Body Experience but I have read about them. It's good to hear that the Fonz now has one - although I didn't know they could be awarded.

I've had one... it was all in my head...

Congratulations, Fonz, slap the jukebox.

I just got a nasty mental image of The Fonz leaving Arnold's with Lizzie on one arm and Camilla on the other AYYYYYYY

[James Hood]

In this opinion, keeping the practice of knighthood alive in these troubled times is important.

A tip of the hat to Sir Henry.

Please kilt up and join The Rabble, Sire, provide a bit more class.

Sadly, the OBE has been so watered down the concept of modern knighthood is more of a popularity contest.

[Paul Henry]

but the OBE isn't a Knighthood

[McClef]

It stands for Order of the British Empire.

I was not aware that it could be awarded to an American though.
