Now I can sleep easily tonight.

ok....

[gyrene81]

   ehh...on second thought...

Except for the royal family and British subjects, I cannot think of anyone, especially Americans who really care. Royal children are no better than the other children born to the world.  We got rid of the born to its, 200+ years ago. There was quite a good reason for this I believe.

Well, I'll tell ya, my wife (neither royal family nor subject of the crown) actually does care. Some of the members of this forum are British subjects, many aren't, unlike you, I can't speak for any of them as to whether they care or not nor their degree of care, if they do. If you don't care, thanks for taking the time to not care so 'vocally.' Most threads I don't care about .... I don't care about enough to hissy in.

Glad the couple had a healthy child.

My day has become a little brighter.

My wife's pretty bright, she is. Just the other day she, and I both, learned about internal combustion engines and how electricity works. She's a mother of two, herself. She has no idea, whatsoever, about what is more of a big deal over any other thing, though. She certainly wouldn't have seen this thread as snipe sport. I'll save her from that. It would only serve to confuse and possibly irritate ..... much in the same way it appears to have with many of the posters in it.

I got phone calls all day from my wife..."Kate's in the hospital!!!"   yadda yadda.....

So she's really into it....for me...well, it's more a symbolic position. I wouldn't want their job.  But kudos to william and harry....they're vets.

And Kate's a babe.

Many Americans actually liked having a king, it gave them weight to business transactions, especially New York based firms dealing across the Atlantic. The only problem was the common people. They didn't want to pay him money that wasn't going to their lives in the colonies so they got rid of him "No Taxation without Representation".

Rather ironic when you think about it... taxes being paid to people who don't put it where its needed, sounds familiar.

But as both a British Subject and a Colonial it is a very good thing to have a future King of England and while I can't say I'm a fanatic. I do like to see that the Monarchy is continuing a tradition of over 1000 years. Especially considering I do have some nobleman in me (Mother was a descendant of the Duke of Monmouth, got executed by Puritans for trying to restore King Charles in the English Civil War).

Its a good day to be a Briton.

Atta girl!

*sigh*  'tis troubling ye hath no pride nor chivalry.  Be gone ye filth!  

I for one am happy for the Royal family, I wish them many years of happiness and perhaps before I leave this world I will have seen the young lad be crowned King.  This American has many roots from the British Isles, most notably in NW England and SW Scotland, so while I am dear to my country through and through if ever I were ever in the presence of the Queen, Prince Charles, Princes Harry or William, the new born Prince, and/or their spouses I'd be certain to give them the respect they deserve.
