Royal baby is a big deal

I love living in Hollywood.  People here know how to dream big.  Their dreams are bigger than life, Paris Hilton's bank account and Kim Kardashian's butt.

People are making a big deal out of the fact Prince George was born at 8 pounds 6 ounces in the same hospital where his dad, Prince William, was born at 7 pounds 1 ½ ounces.  To me, one and a half pounds is only a big deal if I'm losing weight.

Why do people always refer to babies as bouncing bundles?  I've never seen one bounce, but I've also never seen one get dropped.

Kate Middleton said giving birth to the heir of the throne was an "emotional" experience.  That's understandable just because of hormones.

Prince George was born a few days later than his predicted due date.  But due to his pedigree, I think he just made a myth out of the adage:  "A day late and a dollar short."

While Prince George was born on Monday, he didn't officially have a name until Wednesday.  With such indecisiveness, instead of being a king, Prince William should become a U.S. Congressman.

Some insiders said the real reason it took so long to name the new Prince of Cambridge is because Prince Philip was going to get to do the honors.  But the world had to wait for the Queen's hubby to wake up from a nap.

Prince George's birth coincides with Queen Elizabeth beginning a 2-month vacation in Scotland.  But, she still may get stuck with impromptu babysitting chores if Philip goes with her.

Chuck Norris is selling his 7,362-square-foot home in Dallas for $1.2 million because he and his wife want to downsize.  I'd be interested in buying that home if they downsize the price.

Officials with the Bank of England have decided to feature Author Jane Austen on the 10 pound note, making her the only woman besides the Queen to appear on British currency.  This decision literally ends a campaign against pride and prejudice.
