    - oooo...Blackout Curtains! -- nm - Remlik Nov 17, 09:17
  - you don't know LG? really? it's big -- nm - zork Nov 17, 09:06
  - LG used to be Goldstar. It's a pretty well known brand. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 17, 09:06 6
    - They were smart to change their name. Their quality has improved by leaps and bounds since the old Goldstar days. -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:15 3
      - Correlation does not imply causation. -- nm - mara Nov 17, 09:18 1
        
        The new logo has special powers. Makes electronics instantly better, and thus cooler. -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:20
      - They merged with Lucky to create Lucky-Goldstar, but they *insist* that that isn't what LG stands for. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 09:16

Isn't (future) Princess Kate a Catholic? How's that being handled? -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:01 20
- what makes you think she's Catholic? There's no actual reference to it anywhere. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 09:04 17
  - Thus the question. It seems that her faith has been intentionally left in the dark. There's some speculation that she is, based on her parents. -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:14 15
    - It seems impossible that it wouldn't have come up at, like, the first time she met the Queen. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 09:15 14
      - Grandmama, I met a girl at school ... umm ... errr ... she's just a tiny bit Catholic. -- nm - zork Nov 17, 09:18 2
        
        "I got better!" -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 09:22
        
        LOL! -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:19
      - Doesn't mean it has been addressed publicly. -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:18 10
        
        And the notably reserved British tabloids would certainly have ignored it. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 09:20 9
        
        [deleted]
        
        Meh. I thought I'd read the rumor in a British tabloid. -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:21 7
        
        There are lots of sources for the rumor, but if she wasn't baptized or confirmed Catholic, it's a non-issue. If she had been, we'd know by now. - mara Nov 17, 09:23 6
        
        Nope, sorry. Reagen says there is no such rumor. -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:34 2
        
        Yeah, well, Reagen says a lot of things. -- nm - mara Nov 17, 09:34 1
        
        But ML concurred! He *concurred!* -- nm - Mop (217 lbs) Nov 17, 09:43
        
        I think baptized is enough ... -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:26 2
        
        Thus the "or." -- nm - mara Nov 17, 09:34 1
        
        hair-splitting technicality: Can't be confirmed without being baptized. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:35
  - I found confirmation here ... -- (link) - Beryllium Nov 17, 09:06
- interesting. I am sure she will convert. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:02 1
  - If she doesn't, William cannot take the throne. -- nm - znufrii Nov 17, 09:06
Can we figure out which hand he uses next? -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 09:01 2
- "The royal penis is clean." -- nm - con_carne Nov 17, 09:02
- He has someone to do that for him. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 17, 09:02
Tha baby prince looks like he'd be a real douche even before the Nazi costumes. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 08:59 28
- i'm waiting for him to go out and knock up some random slag just to take the attention away from big brother -- nm - cameo Nov 17, 09:02
- I think he has the "I'm rich and young and don't have the whole King thing over my head" going -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 09:01 21
  - and so far he has escaped the curse of the Windsor men ... still looks good. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:02 20
    - I dunno what pictures make him look good. Or which make Wills look bad. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 09:04 14
      - we have totally opposite taste in men. -- nm - chromanda Nov 17, 09:05 13
        
        Honestly, I don't have a recent pic of Wills to see if he's aging, but the guy was typecast Prince handsome. - Will Hunting Nov 17, 09:07 11
        
        the hair is going. fast. -- nm - cameo Nov 17, 09:08 5
        
        there's *nothing* wrong with that. nothing at all. - TFox Nov 17, 09:10 2
        
        he's not the kind of guy who can carry it. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:12
        
        yours just migrated from the scalp to your back -- nm - cameo Nov 17, 09:12
        
        Ooof. yeah, that's bad. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 09:09 1
        
        When he was in his early 20s, the press was kind to him and did not photograph him from the back. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:10
        
        he looks more and more like his Dad, that's all you need to know. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:08 4
        
        I think he looks like Uncle Ed. -- nm - mara Nov 17, 09:12
        
        agreed. -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 09:08 2
        
        although his dad never looked good. grandma did for a while, especially her figure. it was killer. -- nm - zork Nov 17, 09:12 1
        
        the royal women all have great legs. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:13
        
        it's quite obvious which one is hot, really. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:06
    - huh, looks like he hita few branches of the ugly tree on the way down to me -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 09:02 4
      - gingers stick to their own kind -- nm - cameo Nov 17, 09:04 2
        
        heh, I think the opposite. It's rare to see gingers mate. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:04 1
        
        that's cause no one wants to leav the lights on with them. -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 09:05
      - pffft. wrong, Harry is the hot one now. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:03
- yeah. yeah. where's dano? -- nm - chromanda Nov 17, 09:01 4

  - So was I.....that said, he ain't a redhead. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 09:01
  - so was I. I'm not still blonde because of that fact. -- nm - chromanda Nov 17, 09:01 2
    - me too. I had super blonde almost white hair and now it's so dark it's almost black. -- nm - zork Nov 17, 09:08

just googled: Apparently Richard the Lionheart, Henry VII, and Henry VIII were all redheads. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 08:55 21
- The two Henrys were Tudors. Harry is a Hanover (they changed their name to Windsor at the beginning of WWI). Richard was a Plantagenent. None of the - Trish Nov 17, 09:36
- Though disappointingly, William Rufus was named for his red face, not his red hair -- nm - Roger More Nov 17, 09:09
- Why do we care about this? Do we think world leaders will give Prince William noogies? -- nm - con_carne Nov 17, 09:01
- He's a ginger.... -- (link) - Remlik Nov 17, 08:58 13
  - a) that is Harry not William -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 09:00
  - That's Harry. Not William. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:00 9
    - ah thanks. I get them confused. -- nm - Remlik Nov 17, 09:01 5
      - for a dude with a ginger fetish, you FAIL. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:04 2
        
        I didn't know remlik had a ginger fetish. huh. -- nm - chromanda Nov 17, 09:06 1
        
        He doesn't. - Spawn Nov 17, 09:17
      - One of them has red hair, one of them does not. -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 09:03
      - Wills = tall central casting Prince. Harry = frat boy douchebag Prince. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 09:01
    - thanks. :) -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:00 2
      - they are talking about Kate and Wills marriage but the picture and headline are about "Prince Hot Ginge" aka Harry. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:01 1
        
        yeah. yeah. where's dano? -- nm - chromanda Nov 17, 09:01
  - the taxonomy is wrong. He is not a ginger. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 08:59 1
    - (actually the site is blocked for me so I can't see the taxonomy, but he still ain't ginger) -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 09:00
- I'm thinking of starting a support group for parents who aren't gingers, but have kids who are. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 17, 08:57 2
  - Pssstt. Henry VII was the father of Henry VIII. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 08:57 1
    - Yeah, my comment was just an aside about myself, somewhat pertinent to the general topic. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 17, 09:00
