Sadly Will and Kate choose the same day as the Shuttle Launch so I'm stuck at work. Thanks to the internet I'm sure I'll get to see it later. No doubt people will be talking about it for a while. I am so curious to see her wedding dress.

I won't, but I'm sure I'll get a full recap of the play-by-play from my wife.
With so many high profile global events that were negative in nature in the past year or so (oil spill, earthquakes, tsunamis, nuclear leak, etc.), I suspect A LOT of people all over the world will tune in...

I don't feel so bad now.

At least I am not the only person that doesn't care.

hehe.

wow how beautiful catherine looked, now the dutchess of cambridge.
I have to say her dress was magnificent & so much nicer than princess dianna.

At the alter see william speak to catherine, a little bit different than watching Prince charles at the alter.

Wow just saw the pictures online. Love that wedding dress. Kate looked fantastic. William's uniform was so colorful. I was expecting something gray and conservative.

What a great day - so brilliant to be able to share something good.

I avoided it as much as I could. It's not that I have anything against, well, any of it, really. It's more that I hate being flooded with news and information about any single event through the news media.

I did manage to see the holy cartwheel, though.

Well I'm glad Will and Kate had a good day. My day was not so good. We scrubbed the launch half way through the day. Now we have to do it all over again on Monday. I hate it when things go wrong.

Am I the only male on the planet that actually watched it and enjoyed it?... lol

I don't understand why guys think royal weddings are lame, you've got 1000s of soldiers all carrying M16 Assault Rifles which are ARMED with real rounds, plus they've got bayonets, everyone attending who served in the military were all wearing Victorian era military uniforms, was fun actually looking at the uniforms due to the era they're from.

You've then got the royal cavalry guard complete with Victorian era uniforms, all carrying swords. Then you've got the cars, which at the end we were treated to seeing Charle's own car with William driving it. At the very end with the balcony scene you had 2x 1940s Spitfires pride of the British airforce, then you also had the Lancaster Bomber which was an epic sight (even Kate was a bit freaked out by it), then directly over the top 2x F18s plus 2x Tornado Jet Fighters.. and if that wasn't enough at the end they flew over in Williams Helicopter while he was driving his father's car.

How the hell could a guy NOT enjoy that!.. The entire place was loaded with toys!

The only thing the girls gave a crap about was 1. The Dress 2. The Ring 3. Them kissing on the balcony.. big freaking deal, 90% of the bloody telecast was dedicated to the parade.. which was the best parts filled with the toys.

I also really enjoyed the comparison to 1920, 1947, 1980 and now this, it was very much Victorian, you could've sworn it was the Georgian/Edwardian/Victorian era again. On top of this though you do get a good sense of patriotism from viewing something like this, makes you appreciate the monarch more.

I managed to watch that directly after the wedding live from Nasa. Was a bit sad to see this being the second to last shuttle ever. It was a big day though. Ending it with a space shuttle launch was great I feel, so much epic filled into one day.

Umm did you miss the part where we didn't launch? Last I heard we are attempting it again next week.

Oh ok, I was watching fox news, they didn't mention the delay till after I had gone to bed. Was wondering why they stopped covering it. Good to know I'll be able to watch the entire thing then :D.
I wasn't even invited or anything.

Oh well... maybe it got lost in the mail.



Anyway, I chose to attend a salesmeeting instead, and I got a YES as well ;-)

cheers
