Like I said in the open blog I got up at 4:45 (not on purpose) so I watched it. I also recorded it. Oops, can I say that?
I might also add it was a lovely wedding.

I saw a little bit of this morning when I got up to go to work. Saw about two minutes of it and then I flipped to Weather Channel.

Thank goodness it is finally over. Didn't wake early, didn't tune in for the reruns, switched the channel when they started in at the News. Kind of like a Hilton/Spears gag fest.

Due to a variety of factors such as being located far away from family, moving before high school friends got married and going to a college that did not emphasize the MRS degree, I have been to very few weddings in my life. They are like foreign land to me with customs I do not understand. The concept of watching one on television is quite beyond my capacity.

When I was in London I watched the Changing of the Guards. It is quite impressive; the guards are stationed about 2 blocks from Buckingham Palace.

They block all the streets from traffic then all the horse and guards come marching down the street. Then there is a big “Hoop-D-Do” when it comes to changing them. They change one at time and there is a bunch of them, when their done, the same thing, close the streets off and march back to their barracks.

Hale, you're right, I would rather watch a NASCAR Race then watch any wedding on TV.

I watched a little of it not much. After a month of hearing about it on t.v. it just was to much already. I just really didn't care for watching it.

Didn't watch it, didn't record it, didn't care. But I have nothing against those who do.

In the US, our "royalty" are Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen.

I don't think it is a girl thing... I didn't watch a second of it! Zero interest.

I feel we really get "played" by the media, hyping things we are supposed to care about. Sometimes I really think the manipulation is a device used to keep us from thinking about, and getting angry about, the real issues out there.
