Brit Princes Yearn to See Front Lines

(Newser) – Prince William is older, but Prince Harry went to war first—and, he says, “if Harry can do it then I can.” Harry, joining his brother at the media event yesterday, said his helicopter training is the “easiest way of getting to the front lines,” People reports. William, who is undergoing search-and-rescue pilot training, said he “didn’t join the forces to be mollycoddled.”

“Brain capacity? I don’t know if I’ve got it for the Apache,” Harry said of his switch to the more utilitarian Lynx helicopter. “I will fly what I am told to fly and wherever I’m told to fly.” The princes also discussed living together—“He snores a lot,” said Wills. “He keeps me up all night long.” Harry shot back, “Now they will think we are sharing a bed!”

Correction - they are sharing the same upper crust whores in the same bed. What spoiled punks. Send them to the Swat Valley to take on a few Taiban on the ground. We'll see if they are joking then. Reply

One Of A Kind/ Princess Di For those of us who believe and for what it's worth, that there are and have been Angels right here on earth As Elegant as a swan as compassionate as a Nun, hearts all over the world hands down she's won, she used her wealth and brillant mind to help ellimate land mines, she focused on the poorest among mankind She had a rare and genuine soft spot, for people with incurable diseases, she looked beyond what they had and she showed them the love they needed, she was wealthy with lots of diamonds and gold which would have made it easy for her to turn up her nose instead a humanitarian in life, is what she chose She was young in years, old in soul, A tender mother something which came naturally, through her sons her work, still loudly speaks If we've learned anything at all from her existence it should have been, that each one of us can and should try to make a difference There's plenty theories of how she passed, let's focus more on how she lived, vengeance is mine said the lord we must let him do his work, in our heart she'll stay Alive, because God made only one "Princess Di" Poet:Tina Marie Clark Copyright:2007 Reply
