Apparently we must be utterly fascinated by the British royalty. Our media has concentrated for weeks now on the impending nuptials of William and Katherine. They have finally decided to get married after 8 years of being shacked up. One might say, it's about time.
Each day Willie is looking more and more like his half witted father who may inherit the throne, along with his blowsy consort. This looks like one more embarrassment for Great Briton and the royals.
My principal interest in the story is the hysterical reporting of the event. Do we really care what gown Katherine wears ? Are we going to watch our TVs for many boring hours before, during and after the ceremony ? The answered to the above , a resounding yes.
On a personal note, I hate royalty. Can you imagine bowing and curtsying to these people as though they are somehow our superiors ?
Maybe I'm just pissed because my invitation got lost in the mail. I have heard that the Obama invitation also got lost in the mail.

I have absolutely no interest in British royalty. When I turned on the news and they were covering the wedding, however, I thought how refreshing it was to make a big to-do about something not very important. It really was a beautiful spectacle. Beats the heck out of the rest of the news which is almost entirely depressing and should be avoided if possible.
