I am PISSED OFF at ABC News!!!
I find it EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE AND DISTRACTING to being watching the Royal Wedding and to CONSTANTLY see the on-screen label "ABC NEWS THE ROYAL WEDDING LIVE" ***CONSTANTLY*** being displayed on 1/5th of the television screen. HOW UTTERLY UNPROFESSIONAL, MERCENARY, AND THOUGHTLESS OF ABC.

6. Is the bride going to be queen someday or something like that?
Is that why this is so...exciting? (cough)

10. Yes she will be. They showed Diana's wedding also while we lived in Germany on
the Armed Forces Network. Its was wonderful, especially watching it in their time zone. I sure don't like getting up this early but I got up in time to see them making their vows.

11. I switched it on this morning and whilst I was preparing the coffee
I got to listen to Barbara Walters, Tina Brown, and Diane Sawyer all dishing. Gaaack. Walters and Brown get on my nerves in the worst way.

12. Hopefully, it will all be over with by the end of the weekend
And we can go back to forgetting the royals, until they get caught with their pants down by some tabloid's paparazzi.

13. Fat Chance of that happening. Ending on the weekend......
It's Friday. Even though they'll constantly talk about it over the weekend, remember Monday all the weekday shows that's morning, mid morning, and afternoon will just have to put their 2 cents in on it as well. I am so damn sure that's what will happen. Which is why I'm not watching anything until Tuesday.
