Royal Wedding Interpretations #2

We really are living in a post-fairytale world, aren’t we?

(This certainly doesn’t make the point as bluntly as this pic, though.)

(caption: While millions of onlookers enjoyed the newlyweds’ kiss at Buckingham Palace, a certain someone (left) seemed to be not pleased.)

    “Taffeta, darling!”

    LOL, Glen!

    I’m not sure what point is being made, Michael….?

    I like this picture; Will and Kate seem like any other couple sharing a smooch here.

    Regardless of their outfits, that they are on a balcony in Buckingham Palace, and the world is falling apart. Maybe it is that last one that makes me like it so much.

    I think it’s because of the little girl bottom left with her hands over her ears- reflecting what most of us would like – so cute!

    The little girl has yet to learn the finer points of British understatement.

    That three-year-old girl covering her ears at the roar of the crowd is really nothing but utterly human and adorable.

    so, this is what austerity looks like.

    is that a real dress uniform or is it the royals’ version?

    why weren’t the obamas’ invited? i thought the queen and prince philip liked them.
