I don't pay it no nevermind! Is that how you say that? Or is that a double negative? I've heard of it but anything they say about it goes in one ear and out the other or over my head. I don't even know when it is. If my wife happens to turn it on, I'll be at the range!

Feel a bit sorry for Harry. First thing she will do is get pregnant, so that she will forever have a connection to royalty even if he dumps her. This is not going to end well. It will make the Charles and Diana fiasco look like amateur night. The only winners will be the tabloid reporters, who know their jobs are secure for the forseeable future.

HM Queen elizabeth, the Queen Mother, died on March 20th, 2002. Her husband had been the king, so, as the royal widow, she got the courtesy title of HM The Queen Mother. Her daughter Elizabeth was next in line to the throne, not her.

The current queen is the queen in her own right.

At the risk of p*sing you off, I disagree. The present queen has been the titular head of the world's largest peaceful organisation of independent, self-governing states since 1952.

If that doesn't count as experience in governance, I don't know what does.

Anyhow, as is not the case in many nations, ALL her children, as well as her husband, have served with distinction in the Armed Forces, and Andrew and Harry have 'smelled the powder', too. As, of course, she herself did during WW2 when the Luftwaffe was bombing London while her husband-to-be was at sea in the Royal Navy.

Eventually the MM & Harry show will blow over and something equally unimportant will take it's place..

However, when I begin to spot such drivel, I quickly avert my eyes, and voila', I'm not in the least pestered.

So, Meghan Markle's Oregon nephew is using the royal wedding to sell weed in California. Anything to make a buck I guess, including selling drugs.

The interstate commerce nature of this surprises me. I didn't think strains could be shipped across borders like this under federal law, but what do I know, not being a lawyer.

Markle Sparkle is a hybrid of three strains: Blue City Diesel, Blueberry Northern Lights and a "third secret strain" that will be revealed when Markle Sparkle is launched June 2 at the High Times Cannabis Cup Northern California.

That's right: Though Dooley is "a licensed medical marijuana grower in Grants Pass, Oregon who is legally growing the special strain of marijuana in honor of his aunt," according to a press release from {redacted}.com, the strain will first be available in California. A spokesperson for {redacted}.com said over email Wednesday that Dooley is looking for an Oregon distributor for his royal strain. "It could be for sale in Oregon within the next few weeks if all goes well," she added.

One happy consequence is that Fox News has sent Shep to London to cover the festivities, leaving his afternoon slot to others at least for this week.

Maybe Geraldo, too.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

As an aside, it sure would be nice of Shep fell in love while in the UK, had his own wedding, and decided to stay there. Geraldo, too.

This has one positive aspect: All the time they are spending fawning and slobbering over the couple and the wedding is taking away from their obligatory Trump-bashing segments.

I laughed when I saw these on the news. I mean really, with Harry's beard, the gal looks like she'd need to have some sort of emergency bikini wax that required a 55 gal drum of liquid wax.

The stupid networks are starting their coverage at 4:00 am.
I know, there's a time difference - but what idiots are going to get up at that time on the weekend to watch that?

OK, let's see- Four hundred kilos of red mulberries. Fifty 4 prop drones. Thirty bullhorns. One imperial ton of glass marbles, shooter size.
