Oh brother. Someone's been drinking way too much Kool-Aid.

[Neal Pomea]

His remarks in the interview about pretending on Twitter and Facebook, to me, were spot on, i.e., on the spot. He knocked it kisser in, i.e., in the kisser.

Well, due to some unusual circumstances, I find myself up at 5 a.m. (Eastern Time) and watching the Royal Wedding on CNN.

MI5 have invaded your house and are compelling you?

That boat you had dispatched a week or so ago has arrived.

(actually, I had to take my dog to the emergency vet tonight. They had it on in the waiting room as well.)

There are some strange looking people on the television.

No kidding ! Where else are you going to see Elton John standing next to the Admiral of the (ex) Fleet and sining hymns?

[A Lark Ascending]

There are some strange looking people on the television.

All that Saxe-Coburg inbreeding (remember Elton Saxe-Coburg?) with a dash of Greek.

[alankin]

A lot of high foreheads standing around.

Finally, something important mentioned in this thread. Is he doing OK? Hope its nothing serious or distressing.

Out here on the left coast, we like to call them fiveheads.

[Chalupa]

So has William selected his Royal Mistress yet?

Sent you a PM Dan. Thanks for asking.

Wot, was there a decapitation and I missed it?

Sorry about your dog, paps, hope he'll be fine again!

[aparxa]

I was in London around noon but managed to escape from the madness

[Royal Oak]

I had the good fortune to be working today, so missed the whole thing. IMHO, an interest in the Royal Family is a fundamental personality flaw.

[J.A.W.]

We had the same madness - well, not quite on that scale - 9 years ago. Made me wish we still had a republic; we had one for over 200 years, then Napoleon came and went (on a lovely vacation on St. Helena; he loved it so much he decided not to come back this time ) and Prince William of Orange and the Vienna Congress forced a kingdom upon us, and now the majority here love it... [sigh]

[king ubu]

well, I gladly volunteer to send my jacobins!

[Chuck Nessa]

Each society keeps its own crap. Be happy.

At a Hot Tuna gig in Virginia tonight, Jorma Kaukonen dedicated 'If This Is Love (I Want My Money Back)' to the royals.
