  1. I bet what happened was, given the poor state of the economy, the Prime Minister called up the Royal Family and said “How ’bout those two get mnarried. It’ll be a huge boost to the economy.”

  2. A friend of mine who works near the Abbey said she can barely get to work & the streets near her office are:
    absolutely packed with people camping on the pavement and international TV channels interviewing them. The world has gone mad!!

  3. I have a strong negative reaction to Trump. Probably the worst thing I’ve heard so far is how he has lots of friends whose kids have great grades and have done everything perfectly but *they* haven’t gotten into Harvard, so why should Obama? That statement coming out of a guy like Trump, referring to the kind of people he is friends with, fills me with the urge to vomit.

    Kids who are highly coached to get into college are unexceptional.

    I never took an SAT prep course. Didn’t have the money. I had the money to buy a book that had a few sample SATs in it, and I took a couple of those. I took the SAT at Northfield Mount Hermon, because that was the closest test location for the date I wanted. I remember looking around and thinking about how all of those kids had been prepped for the exam for months and had taken lots of practice tests. Oh and of course they actually studied the subjects in school.

    I did better than almost all of them on the test. And now I kick their sorry asses for a living.

    Trump’s friends’ kids are weak.

  4. Here it is:

    Prince William’s nightclub owner friend is said to be planning a wild bachelor party. It must be weird stuffing a bill in a stripper’s g-string when it has a picture of your grandmother on it.
