I can imagine what my exwife and her family (Irish) are saying about this wedding.. Something along the line of: "Fuck the Brits". ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

I started the thread to vent. You've never done that? You're not breaking any new ground with your observation. | |||

“We have always found the Irish a bit odd. They refuse to be English.” Winston Churchill Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Brush your teeth and get to bed, boss. Anderson Cooper, Alisyn Camerota and Don Lemon start coverage on CNN at 0400. You want to get a full 8 hours so you can be fresh and lively from the get-go!

That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation."

From what I have read, Scots accepted British rule, after quite a bit of violence, came into the country, same crown, Parliament, Prime Minister, and actually, according to a book I recently enjoyed, not only made the most of it but “improved the breed” and profited by that union. It has sometimes been a rocky relationship, probably correlated with the economy somewhat. You know how the Scots can be about those things. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way.

It won't be over. Next they've got to start popping out some pups and we've going to hear wall to wall coverage about that. _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | |||

Yep. I'm watching it now on the BBC. I'm hanging out in Narita. The horse procession was cool. | |||

The royals' goings-on, while not going into active dislike, have never budged my "give-a-fuck-o-meter." My interest was piqued a little with Kate. She lights up whatever room she walks into and is never seen in public dressed like a midnight trip to Wal-Mart. I found this to be a pleasant diversion. After reading about baby Alfie (discussed here recently), who had a terminal illness that the socialized medicine system not only refused to treat, but actively participated in his death despite being given an out, I have gone into active dislike. If that had happened to whatshisface and Kate's kid, no expense would have been spared to save him, and there would have been wall-to-wall coverage of their "courage." | |||

Now the press will hound the newlyweds' every step during their honeymoon and constantly cover that as much as possible.... | |||

Check the home page at OANN not a mention of this wedding until the very bottom of the page and that's just a little thumb nail picture. Fox news and all the others and jamming it in your face. Way to go OANN! "Fixed fortifications are monuments to mans stupidity" - George S. Patton | |||

My crowd at work insisted on watching the ceremony. I've caught up on paperwork and been reading a book. Here's to the sunny slopes of long ago. | |||
