Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge, AKA Royal Baby I.

It seems like ages since he was announced, and it seemed to take him forever to get here, but the Royal Wedding has yielded an adorable Royal Baby boy.  Now a day after his public debut, we’re finally getting an official announcement of his name.   The Royal Baby’s full name is His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge.  True to their royal status, Prince George doesn’t have a last name, much like his father and Grandfather and all the royal line.  William’s legal name and title chain is His Royal Highness Prince William Arthur Philip Louis, Duke of Cambridge.

However, while he may not have a last name, he’s got strong middle class roots.  His mother’s side of the family isn’t a noble house, they’re party planners who somehow turned themselves into millionaires after starting from lower-middle-class roots.  It’s definitely a self-made success story, and one that hopefully will make the newest Prince more down-to-earth and accessible to the normal rank-and-file Briton, even if he is royalty and worth tens of millions of dollars.  Maybe he’ll even be normal enough to reverse the curse of the name George, favored by both mad kings and unrepentant playboys the world over.

“William’s childhood was normal by upper-middle-class standards — private schools, expensive holidays, McDonald’s in a smart part of town as opposed to a grotty part of town,” said royal historian Robert Lacey.  “I think really one is going to see more of the same.”  He adds that the new Prince had, “a grandfather who started off dispatching aircraft from Heathrow Airport and a grandmother who started out as a flight attendant and grew up on a council estate, who came from coal-mining stock in Durham.  That is all funneling through.”

Sadly for him, it looks like little HRH Georgie has his father’s hairline.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
