    Well, we do have two empresses. And wasn't the girl on the planet that was threatened by the comet a princess?

    Personally, when I set out to attempt to insult someone else's intellect, I generally take care to spell my insults correctly.

    The word you want is "dumb", spelled with a silent "b" at the end. "Dum" isn't even a word in English, although when you alter a bullet so as to cause the slug to expand drastically on hitting its target (often by carving an X into the nose of the slug), it's then called a "dumdum [or dum-dum] round".

    I won't go into the whole emotional connection British subjects seem to feel to their royal family; my country worked hard to separate itself from the British Empire some 237 years ago, so the most I can work up is a mild interest in the firstborn of what appears to be a very nice couple.

    ....just to add some humor....

    "No matter how silly the idea of having a queen might be to us, as Americans, we must be gracious and considerate hosts."

    ....please somebody get this joke.....



    Just some more for the H of it:

    "It's true what they say: Cops and women don't mix. It's like eating a spoonful of Drano; sure, it'll clean you out, but it'll leave you hollow inside."

    "Frank: It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.

    Jane: Goodyear?

    Frank: No, the worst. "

    ...geez I'm so off topic......another warning for me!!!!

    Surprisingly, this wasn't on YouTube... after all: Protecting the Queen's safety is a task that is gladly accepted by Police Squad.

    Actually the Royals often serve in the military, even fighting on the frontlines.

    ...and my own personal experience(19D) with this one - I don't believe for one second that he was in any real danger[Personal History: I was with the unit Sarah Palin's boy was in - he was dummy corded to the Colonels posse] ....with all the press and whatnot about him going over I surprised they let him do anything.....plus if he wanted the real experience - be a ground pounder :D.....

    Don't presume to know how "British subjects" feel about the royal family. Personally I think having a head of state who is also the head of monarchy at the pinnacle of a class system epitomises everything which is wrong with this country.

    I firmly believe in the separation of church and state, the sooner this country gets it - the better.

    Even if they are just glorified tourist attractions.

    Seeing as the previous President was the son of a President, and now his brother is being discussed as a potential candidate, is America really any different from monarchy? We seriously need laws stopping relatives of politicians from running to prevent dynasties.

    Every time you leave the ground in a helicopter you are in very real danger of very real (and messy) death.

    Weren't they just? I've never heard thunder that loud before - and the lightening was so far away when it started. Then when the rain came down, I couldn't help but go outside at 4.30am just to sit in it for a little while. It felt almost tropical, it was beautiful.

    Could do with a bit more, been so muggy today!

    I looked up the forecast in hope. Looks like it's going to be mostly in the Midlands. Pretty much no rain down in London :(

    Although I kinda couldn't give a monkeys about the royal baby I am British and i feel proud to have a well known royal family.

    So please stop the hate i for one do not bash the fact many other countries lack the wonder of such a head of state as I feel having a president is nothing more than having a puppet who has no voice and is bound by the people and the principles of the people below him or her.
