    BTW I haven't been following the story of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor too closely. (And I just saw his picture from the car they were leading him away in. Why does he have that look of terror on his face? What are they going to do? Behead him? Like they did with Charles I?) But anyways, I haven't been following it and don't know much about him. I just remember he acted wild in his youth or something. But you know, now is the time for those jokes. Jokes about famous people in trouble with the law. I think they're called how-the-mighty-have-fallen jokes or something. Like with Clinton and Michael Jackson and their scandals. (I liked Clinton, like I've said.)

    Just so you know, they are always inappropriate. I think that might be so the person who did that and hears them is outraged. (I'm just saying, that's how those jokes work.) And they usually include funny elements from their life. Words or phrases they often use, humorous things they are known for. And also other news stories they were involved in. Possibly embarassing too. Also, I think the reason why they are not otherwise inappropriate is because they involve famous people and well-known news stories.

    (And just to make I don't know if people outside of the US fully understand. The reason why you can laugh at stories like this one about the former Prince Andrew is because they are famous stories in the news. And they're rich and privileged and have little to complain about to begin with.)
