"This is Diana country," said Lisa Stewart, a member of a band of devotees called the Diana Circle U.S. "We love Diana still."Wow. Someone stupider than the Prince of Wales.

Over five years real military service -- including helicopter pilot, fighter jet pilot, and Captain of a mine sweeper.
Plays extreme sports for recreation: polo (one of the world's most dangerous sports), alpine skiing, riding the hounds, shooting, etc., etc.
Dedicates himself to serious causes, when he could simply live the life of an international playboy. Disagree with him you may -- he's wrong on a lot of issues -- but, give him credit for diligence.
Fop -- or just another victim of the media?

Oh how noble of them to condescend to such charity as
bestowing a visit upon the dregs of America....
Blue blood = O2 deprivation

Lisa Stewart, 35, of Louisiana, founder of the Diana Circle U.S., said "Diana will never die". Do you think people have too much time and money on ther hands ... ? LOL

What's Barmy Prince Charlie going to do -- put tampons in the dikes to stop the leaking?
To: USFRIENDINVICTORIA; cardinal4
Although I spent five years in England, I'm not much of a Royal Watcher. But I think the Prince to whom you refer is Andrew, who was indeed a Naval Officer and flew a helicopter during the Falklands Campaign.

Chuck,
Do not forget your harlot when you leave. She would wind up working one of the live shows.

Come on, be nice. I have met him a few times. He is a nice guy with some misguided notions and values. I've alway given him a break and often thought he was being treated poorly.
Unfortunately, on this trip to the US all I've heard so far is that he disagrees with everything American.
He could surprise me on his trip to New Orleans, but I'd bet that he won't be complementary.

please define "fop". I found this at: http://dictionary.reference.com/wordoftheday/archive/2000/01/24.html
Word of the Day for Monday January 24, 2000 fop \FOP\, noun: A man who is much concerned with his dress and appearance; a dandy.
---------------------------
Fop comes from Middle English fop, foppe, a fool.

Clinton is a "nice guy", too, according to some.
Doesn't mean I want him living next door to me or visiting my city after a disaster.

Charles' office would not say whether the prince planned to raise the issue of climate change, which he recently called "the greatest challenge to face man." Bush's refusal to sign the Kyoto accord on greenhouse gas emissions has angered many environmentalists.
Guess this is the real reason for the New Orleans visit... Global warming caused Katrina.
To: Ax
You're right about Andrew -- but, Charles also had a military career (although he didn't see combat).

An historian I once heard said that it is important to remember that the British once ruled half the world & they didn't get there by being pansies. He said we shouldn't let the veneer of manners fool us about the character beneath. Historically, the aristocracy were all warriors -- the Royals were the meanest of the mean.
While things have changed a lot since then, many of those warrior values remain in the Royals. Diana tried to redefine the Monarchy as a sort of Paris Hilton celebrity role. The media loved it; but the rest of the Royal family hated it -- especially when she went on her whine-fest on daytime tv.

The Prince of Wales appears like a "blue" version of George McGovern or John F. Kerry.
