From the April 24th Parade Magazine "Walter Scott's Personality Parade.
I don't plan to watch it, a little too much ET and People for me. But I am interested in the historical aspect of Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding this Friday.
Q: Why isn't Queen Elizabeth's husband called prince and not king?
A: As husband of the queen, Prince Philip, 89, is a consort, not a king. He holds the title of Duke of Edinburgh. The spouse of a male British monarch can take the title of queen.
I always wondered why he wasn't King Philip.
Q; If something happens to Princes William and Harry, who would take the throne after their father, Prince Charles?
A: Charles' brother, Prince Andrew, 51. Followed by his daughters, Beatrice, 22, and Eugenie, 21, and his brother Prince Edward, 47.
When does Cooter get his chance? King Cooter or King Coot. Has a nice ring, doesn't it?
Q: How many dogs has Queen Elizabeth owned?
A: Since getting here first corgi as an 18th-birthday present, she has owned 30 others and currently has four. She also has three dorgis (when one of her corgis mated with Princess Margaret's dachshund).
I'll be doggone.
So, Now You Know. --Cooter
