Prince Charles: give up cars and walk

A report at the link below says that Prince Charles (pictured) is urging people to give up their cars in favor of walking and public transport to reduce carbon emissions.

Charles used phrases like, “elevate the pedestrian above the car.” He denounced “domination of the car over the pedestrian.” Well, pedestrian is a big word so why not use it over and over?

We wonder if this means the Prince will park his chauffeured Rolls and ride the tube? No, probably not. The trains may smell sweaty from too many commoners on board.

Thinking up condescending pronouncements gives the Prince something to do while he waits for the Queen to die so he can begin his life’s work.

Most Brits are hoping Queen Elizabeth will live at least as long as her mother who reached the age of 101 before her death in 2002.

The article at the link below does have one redeeming feature: a picture of Charles behind the wheel of an old classic Aston Martin convertible that the Queen gave him for his 21st birthday.

That gorgeous Aston Martin is an antique. Come to think of it, the driver, who is not so gorgeous, is also an antique.
