Anything Dumber Than Royalty?
Seriously, suppose your tax dollars went to support a bunch of half-wit idiots like the 
British Royal family.  I've always hated the idea of royalty and have never heard an explantion for why a nation like the UK can support it.  Dressing up as a Nazi?  "Poor taste."  In America, you make a comment like Notre Dame isn't getting the "black athlete," and you're a pariah.  
As to the Cubs, I have nothing interesting to say.  Congratulations to Ryno.  You've heard that, though.  The off-season isn't over.  The Cubs outfield is sickly at this point.  I'm in a wait and see mode until further notice.
