All the speculation about a girl was poppycock

I have "El-Rafo Cambridge" as my entry in the Ladbrooke's board on baby names. Let's see how I do.

Good news! Congrats to the Royals.

Congrats to the new mom and dad, as well as all of England.

I must say the older I get the more intrigued I become with the British royal family. A lot of it has to do with Prince harry being seemingly down to earth, as much as can be expected anyway.

Congratulations to all my British friends on the arrival of HRH. Can I put $10 on the name being Kanye Willard? Probably won't win but the odds are too good to turn down.

This is one story that has not interested my in the least, but at about 1345MDT, I got two alerts on my phone that the Duchess had just delivered a boy.

I was on my way to my car to go to my bowling lesson.

I shrugged and went on my way.

I've always had a lot of respect for Queen Elizabeth II for her dignity and public service and recently I read up on Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and her role mobilizing the British people during WWII, such that Adolf Hitler, himself, called her the most dangerous woman in Europe.

The younger Royals have been a bit rowdy on the whole, but I do admire Andrew, William, and Harry for their military service.

I believe they all have at least some military service, but I'm pretty sure the ones mentioned above have served in combat.

England got the trifecta in the last 24 hours:

1. New heir to the thrown 'a king'!!
2. Winning the Second Test at Lords against the hopeless Aussies
3. Winning the 100th Tour de France (Chris Froome).

On a roll.........................
