Random comment - Prince William drives? I'm surprised they let the future King drive, let alone drive a car full of royals.


A Range Rover being driven by Prince William and carrying Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and Edward's wife Sophie has arrived at Balmoral Castle.

I can't get too worked up about this. 96 is a good run, and she has had one of the most privileged lives of anyone on the planet.

It will rain today


Oh, darn. The forecast was for no rain today and I sent DC to school without an umbrella - he hates to be unprepared.

No source given for that information.


Well, they are racists, so I am not surprised. So the tampon will become the head?

It'll be like when an actor or singer die whose name I've heard but have never watched or listened to their work. I just think "well, that's too bad for their family" and move on.


You care enough to post.


Yes, PP just wants attention. “Look at me! I’m so cool that I don’t even care!!”


No, it's not about attention or being cool. I just wondered if I'm alone. I don't understand why people with zero connection DO care. I understand caring if you've been to England, have family from there, have some connection to the royal family, but if not ... why?


I think people care because the British royal family is part of American culture, too.

She was horrible to Diana, only made public statements after the outrage of the country, and has long protected Andrew.


You're not the "doesn't care, have zero connection" type of person that PP is talking about...

My friend is on a trip to England. She can probably witness this historic moment and the state funeral. Wow.

England is our ally and is the ancestor, if you will, of this country's culture and laws. There are many cultures that have come into this country but the founding culture, and the basis of our system of laws, was England.


+1. My ancestors came from England, my church is in communion with (and descended from) the church of which Queen Elizabeth is the Supreme Governor, I speak her language, and I've got many British friends.
