that is all.
Agree. Is it pre-empting regular programming on our local networks? I see it is elsewhere.

I'm about as interested in this wedding as am in any wedding involving people I don't know. I think I'd rather watch My Big Redneck Wedding on CMT.

I always loved this exchange with a photographer she was sitting for, not sure if it was really attributable to QEII or not:

The Queen: "Photography must be an interesting business.  I have a cousin who is a photographer."

Photographer: "What a coincidence, I have a cousin who is a queen."

Millions of People Prince William Would Never Deign To Speak To Captivated By Royal Wedding
APRIL 22, 2011 | ISSUE 47•16
LONDON—Onlookers throughout the English-speaking world remained enthralled this week by the majesty and pomp of the upcoming nuptials of England's Prince William, a man who wouldn't in a million years be caught dead associating with any of them, sources reported. "What a beautiful dress—and that cake!" said Arizona housewife Jeanette Tyler, 47, a woman Prince William has been raised since birth to believe he is genetically superior to in all respects. "It's like a fairy tale." The wedding of Price William, whose full title is His Royal Highness Prince William Arthur Philip Louis of Wales, Royal Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, will be broadcast to six continents of the eager hoi polloi, none of whom he would ever even stand within 50 feet of unless they were part of a carefully orchestrated photo opportunity.

Genetically superior???

Take a look at his dad.  There's some termites in that wood pile!

True.  But luckly for him, he got most of his from the Spencer side.  Except for the hair loss, which is starting already.

Well duh, it's The Onion.

I've been waiting for the perfect moment to drop that line on the Royal Family.  Thanks for the lead in.
