I was going through Twitter, just playing around and bored, when Twitter just seemed to explode. Hundreds of tweets pouring in about "Royal baby on the way!" Kate's in labor!" "AHHH! So excited!"

C'mon...it's a baby. Yes, it's third in line to the throne of England, but still.

I am fairly sure there is massive disinterest out there in FReeperland, but I thought you might want to know.

A most happy and blessed event.

If I owned pigeons I think I should let them loose.
Instead, I’ll let myself loose!

This is a BANNER headline on the NY Post’s website today. Now, I like this gal a lot and I’m thinking of her and saying a prayer and hoping all goes well, but I had to ask, is this appropriate for a NYC paper.

I can’t remember them ever having a banner like that before,it’s a little over the top.

Ugh, this annoys me so much.

It’s THE hospital, okay? THE hospital!

Leaving off the article is even more annoying than the propensity to stick extraneous “U”s into words where there is no phonetic reason to do so.

/end rant

I could not care less about the baby. Any news about the royals is wasted airspace, IMO...

[A] traditional method is used to announce the birth. A messenger carries a piece of paper from the hospital to Buckingham Palace containing details of the gender, weight and time of birth. [T]he Lindo Wing - where rooms cost about 5,000 pounds (5,800 euros; $7,800) - is where Princess Diana gave birth to William and his younger brother, Harry.
