Kate's baby is a boy.

And all our TV channels and others are showing nothing else.

El bebé de Kate es un niño.

Y todos nuestros canales de televisión y otros están mostrando nada más.

One would think an alien had arrived.

Uno pensaría que un extranjero /extraterrestre había llegado.

Congratulations amigo - pmikan-pam, Jul 22, 2013

I am not the lad's dad amiga - honest :) - ian-hill, Jul 22, 2013

You couldn0t have said it better,amigo. I don't see the need to be posting this irrelevant event on the facebook status of so many people who are never even going to make it to England. - diagonx, Jul 22, 2013

En vez de "extranjero" iría mejor "extraterrestre". - diagonx, Jul 23, 2013

This is a joyous occasion, a child's birth, no matter what political views you hold. - rac1, Jul 23, 2013

And that doesn't get much coverage on our corporate media. They better sell us the life of famous people to have us where they want us. So no, in our context this news is utterly frivolous and unimportant. No matter how big a fuss they want to make. - diagonx, Jul 23, 2013

Context. When stil at college 5 years ago I volunteered for the Jesuit Refugee Service to work with displaced people in the south of Bogota, there I met many families with baby children that barely made it to 1 meal a day, and that hasn't changed at all. - diagonx, Jul 23, 2013

It's the same here too, Ian, and I have to admit, I've been anxiously awaiting the news. That's fantastic!! Another heir to the throne has arrived!! Congratulations to the parents and the rest of the family. Princess Diana would have been so pleased. I wish she could have lived to see this.

Yay!! Our life is plagued by many real-life issues here in Colombia, but every news site has this utterly important news at the top of the page.

It helps relieve the pressures - pmikan-pam, Jul 22, 2013

That's one prespective Pam! Many here in this country may use a moment to think why they need this kind of frivolous news to help them relieve the pressure. - diagonx, Jul 22, 2013

It's nice to hear good news in the midst of bad circumstances. :D - Findy, Jul 22, 2013

Our perspectives get distorted some times amigo. - ian-hill, Jul 22, 2013

After the good news, you read about a mom falling off roller coaster while her kids were watching. - 0083f5dc, Jul 22, 2013

Well, my firends, I think most people are seeing a distortion here, 'cause this news are not good for anyone other than the new parents. From where I see it is totally irrelevant. - diagonx, Jul 22, 2013

Yeah, kinda like the Pope coming huh? How many millions spent on that? - Ranman, Jul 22, 2013

Empire!!!!! - Jraider, Jul 23, 2013

Yes, it is exactly like a visit from the Pope. It's tradition and no matter whether you like it or not, it does bring people together. I'm sure many English people who are celebrating think of the baby as 'their' future king, just like catholics think of - 0095ca4c, Jul 23, 2013

the Pope as 'their' Holy Father. It unites people and better that than politicians dividing classes and races like what is going on now with this Trayvon Martin deal. - 0095ca4c, Jul 23, 2013

And in the end, this brith doesn't matter, life's the same it was before he was born, even if it appears on Tv like, the twitting pope. - diagonx, Jul 23, 2013

You're exactly right. All the hoopla will only last a few days and then it will be forgotten, just like the baby's grandmother. - 0095ca4c, Jul 24, 2013

I've always wondered why the royals in England seem to get the most interest in the whole world! I'm in another country today and it was on their version of the "Today Show". And here I am, excited about it too. ha.

Siempre me he preguntado por qué Los reales en Inglaterra se parece obtener la más interés en todo el mundo. Hoy estoy en otro país y fue en sus versions de "Today Show". Y aquí estoy yo, estoy entusiasmada sobre él también. jaja

It's a prince!

Another pom has hit the deck to live in privilege

they say his genes has given him great longevity

If scrubbing decks was his lot upon those royal knees

life would be like most of us , three score years and ten.

-- enter image description here

Three cheers for the right Royal pom ,

Just don't let him play cricket.

Tres hurras por el derecho Royal pom,

Simplemente no lo dejó jugar al cricket

Of course a birth should be celebrated, but in my country this shouldn't be any news at all, while other truer, crueler realities are never told. - diagonx, Jul 23, 2013

Very true Diagonx, but if we never celebrate anything because of the injustice in the world, we would never celebrate anything. I understand where you're comming from. - rac1, Jul 23, 2013

@Diagonix, Agreed mate , but maybe we can use these trivialities as a vehicle to launch an assault on the inequalities of life , and outline that which we can do about it. - ray76, Jul 23, 2013

The thing is that many people should stop celebrating unimportant events and start doing something else to cause an impact. Who knows what may happen while we celebrate. - diagonx, Jul 23, 2013

At Christmas a birth is celebrated :-) - 0095ca4c, Jul 23, 2013

Well Ian, here is yet another ridiculous royal to be supported by you and countrymen. It´s a pity that the only thing they do is waste your hard earned pounds.

I agree mate , but sadto say , the Royals are a business and they bring a fortune into the country and the " feel good " value is enormous , I am not a royalist but a pragmatist and they do create work and money for the country. - ray76, Jul 23, 2013

I think that's a terrible thing to say. If the English want to support the Royals, that's their business. I'm quite sure that there are politicians in your country who waste your hard earned whatever. - 0095ca4c, Jul 23, 2013

Margherite, you can be sure that in ANY country politicians waste money of taxpayers. - 005faa61, Jul 25, 2013
