Saw this story in there, and had to wonder:

If it's not on the BBC or the Guardian then it's probably not true.

that story's quite funny though - who gives a fuck if the guy's a divorcee?

if it's true it won't win monkeyboy many fans over here, charlie may be a dull old loon that talks to plants but he's still royalty. anyone who cares about that sort of thing won't take a value judgement from king george very well.

I watch BBC news more than anything else. Who da fuck knows if it's up to Freakaloin's standards, but I like it. I watch BBC world news pretty much every night.
