I had a Prince Albert for many years - finally took it out for surgery

Keep an eye out for a metallic adornment at the top of the building.

Your Victorian sensibility is ironically appropriate for this particular topic...

Since it is named after Victoria's husband Prince Albert who had a Prince Albert - she liked it

Exactly the point of my last post.

Also, that was the popular belief. Doubt it was ever proved.

Yes, I got your last post but thought it a little vague, some people might not get it so I was more explicit

Reminds me of the old phone prank.
Call a tobacco shop and ask if they have Prince Albert in a can. When they say yes, act shocked and exclaim- "Well you better let him go!"
