What a sight for sore sighs...three men who would be king, each of them without access to a most coveted crown. The Prince of Wales and Camilla have arrived in St. John's. (We all have a pretty good idea of how long Charles is likely to wait.)
But what of the other two pretenders of the realm? Prince Stephen fancies the idea of lording it over all he surveys but so far, Canadians have thought otherwise. Three cheers for reasoned common sense!
And what would be a royal reunion without the aspirant to the throne of the Rock. Prince Danny has already issued a few choice proclamations -- just ask any and everyone who happens to be smarting in the land of the fleur-de-lys. (I'll bet they're more than willing to light Danny's fire!)
In short, it requires an expert of the highest calibre to correctly fashion crowns for what could potentially be extremely swelled heads.
Break out the ermine robes, sceptres and champagne. The royals are in for a hell of a good time.

The Ultimate Topper In Hypocrisy!
I have to say one thing about the Obama Administration. They sure know how to deliver a message with a sledgehammer. (Has Barack taken a page from this Prime Minister's playbook?!) Recent Canadian history has confirmed that this approach, more often than not, leads to mixed results.
But there was Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, in Pakistan, plainly stating publicly that she believes that officials in that government, its armed forces and intelligence service (ISI) have more than a little idea where Osama Bin Laden is.
I have a pretty good idea where Bin Laden is also -- but guess what, it isn't in the border areas of Afghanistan and Pakistan. My strong suspicion is that he is sitting comfortably smack in the middle of one of our most reliable allies...he is likely under protective custody, which may or may not be officially sanctioned.
Somehow I suspect that I'm not the only person in Washington D.C., Ottawa, or elsewhere for that matter who happens to have come to that conclusion.
