Just out of being human I hope she has a full recovery and doesn't suffer too much from the chemo.

I wonder if they are regretting chasing Harry away? I hear that Camilla is handling a lot of duties.

It shows how disengaged William is from the duty side of his job that Charles' cancer is being dealt with in a much more open, honest and appropriate manner. And Charles is about two centuries out of date.

It used to be "May you be in Heaven for an hour before the Devil knows you're dead." Not received well.

Seems kinda self-centered.

If I started the list with "My father tried to kill me several times before I started grade school" would that have any influence on your opinion?

It would reinforce it, so...yes. You don't wish people fewer troubles by bringing up your own.

Strippers' bill of rights bill signed into law in Washington state

Awful scenes from Baltimore. The Francis Scott Key bridge (Interstate 695) collapsed after being struck by a cargo ship. There were clearly vehicles on the bridge at the time, including a highway crew with flashing yellow lights. Nightmare stuff.

Sky is reporting that the ship appears to lose power and change course minutes before it struck the bridge.

And the floor strippers and polishers rejoiced. 

Hmmm, starting to see a pattern here.  We have planes falling apart in the air and ships taking out bridges...I think I will just continue to stay home.

Cargo ship that hit Baltimore bridge was involved in Antwerp collision in 2016 (msn.com)

The same vessel that hit the Baltimore Key Bridge on Tuesday, destroying it and sending people and vehicles tumbling into the water, was also involved in a collision while leaving the port of Antwerp, Belgium, in 2016.

Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, says the idea of Americans being able to retire at 65 is an outdated notion.

His estimated net worth is 1.2 billion.
