Megxit...For Or Against! 
Your Input Matters...Not!!



With reports of wars and rumors of wars, as the Bible accurately predicted... hunger, homelessness, rampant disease, the murder rate going up...we are most mesmerized by Harry and Meghan disassociating themselves from the royal family?! 




I could make a list of a thousand things that are important to me and "megxit" would NOT even make the list! How about you? 






However, since we are here...what do think is the reason for them to leave the royal family who enjoy all the perks that ordinary individuals could only dream of in their wildest dreams! 






With an army of servants picking up after them, food made by award winning chefs, doormen, footmen (apparently to massage their feet), bathroom attendants ("loo" attendants for them), who even go as far as wiping their butter from their royal fingers), chauffeurs, EVERYTHING, JUST EVERYTHING...why give that all up?!! 




On the other hand, they have to constantly deal with all the rules and protocols on how to greet folks, how to address the Queen, use the proper eating utensils, when to curtsy, or go to the loo, what clothes to wear, even their shoes, how to wave when in a parade, how to treat the old chamber maid, HEY! How did this turn into a poem?!




Let me try not to digress. The worst thing, according to Meghan and Harry, is the unrelenting paparazzi!! 




Never having a moment of peace would drive me crazy! However, disguising myself would be fun, like Michael Jackson did by wearing a "fat suit" to go in public. I'd have to wear a "skinny suit" to completely fool folks!


Not M.J. but a reasonable fatsimile!

Meghan and Harry want to do a bit of "slumming" for a while. Be like the proletariat, the commoners...

Now, even though I'm kinda a "big deal" in the narrow confines of of the narrowest fan base of my blog, the handful of my faithful YouTube subscribers, and in the eyes of Greg and Dan, who host the Greg and Dan radio show (link below), I will NEVER receive the bright hot spotlight attention that Harry and Meghan receive every minute of every day! 



So, I really have no idea what I'm talkin' about...once again. 

Here's an idea! Since none of you are ROYALS, as far as I know, tell us what you think you would do in Harry and Meghan's spot, if you can imagine yourself as a beautiful royal couple, who are EXPECTED to be loyal to ancient tradition, but desire to break away from thousands of years of history and honorable family loyalty, and live a selfish life of hedonism and debauchery! 

he·don·ism

 I think you already know the meaning of debauchery. 

On the other, OTHER hand, they may now be free to be themselves, be happy, and let their happiness and love permeate the hearts and souls of billions of folks who will now view them as regular people, down to earth, the average Joe, compadres, amigos, comrades, pardners, sidekicks, besties, and just plain peers...but with millions of dollars! 




Leave your comments profusely, people! A wise man once said, "A blog dies without the breath of comments from the proletariat!"


Okay, it wasn't a wise man, it was me!


Happy Monday!!
