As Shakespeare said, some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon ’em.

Prince Philip was in a sense all three, a man born into the Greek royal family yet denied his birthright; someone who had to work hard to carve out his status in life; and a man who ended up, over the course of seven decades by the Queen’s side, earning a unique place in history as the longest-serving consort of any monarch.

Update...

Prince Harry had lunch with philanthropist Wallis Annenberg at an exclusive Hollywood club on the Queen's 95th birthday after returning to California following Philip's funeral, reports claim

Sucking up to our Deep State on granny's birthday. What a guy!

BTW, quarantines are for the little people.

We still don't know the Harkles' vaccination status, Harry's visa status, or if the couple is using Harry to dodge US income taxes.

To my mind there are three incarnations of feminism.

First one: Equality of opportunity.

Second: Equality of outcome.

Third and current: Men can eat dirt and die.

I’m first incarnation.
