Long Live The King!  Oh Baby!

Maybe it’s
just me but has the exuberant, mind numbing wall to wall coverage of the birth
of the so-called Royal Baby of the Duke and Duchess of England reached a point
of overload!  Frankly, I thought
“Breaking News” cut ins was reserved for national tragedies such as tornadoes
or major court decisions.  To use that
medium to announce that Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge had gone into labor
seems a bit of a stretch.  Now that the
Royal Baby has made his first appearance I guess we will be inundated with periodic
updates on his progress such as when he first rolls over, when he utters “MaMa”
and all the other cute antics of a new born. 
Like other members of England’s royalty who have no regular jobs other
than to pin medals on their subservients, the new baby, third in line for the
throne, will have few decisions to make other than to choose a pony for his
polo matches!  Please spare me the inane,
shallowness!
