What's A Girl To Do?


Kate Middleton's got to pick a tiara to wear to her wedding. Fortunately, she doesn't have to drive-thru Brides 'R Us to pick up some sparkly headgear because William's granny has got the keys to the crown jewels. But what will she choose? Will QEII give her some finery? It's fun just to speculate as the Wedding day gets closer. And while you're waiting you can get to know the Middletons a little better.

The Chick's Got Style

We're now within three weeks of the Royal Wedding. Can. Hardly. Wait! And finally the magazines are putting out the stories that I've been wanting to read ever since Wills & Kate announced the wedding. And I hope that for weeks after the wedding, there will be books and magazines devoted to what she wore, where she wore it and what's she doing now. When Diana got married, we didn't have the Internet and I had to wait for weeks for People magazine to publish a few photos here and there. Or I had to go to the bookstore where they had an extensive magazine rack in order to look over the photos in two-week old British magazines and newspapers. You can read about how Catherine Elizabeth (good middle name) Middleton is going to single-handedly save the Monarchy in Newsweek. And see photos from her childhood on Huffington Post.com. What I really want is an article about her hats...let me know if you find it first.

Oh, Yes! He's A Lucky Dog



Last week you watched him get rescued from a floating island of wreckage in the middle of the ocean nearly three weeks after an earthquake and tsunami had separated him from his people. And today, he was reunited with his owner. I think they're both feeling pretty good about it. I know I am.

The Goose Takes A Gander


A nice Sunday kind of story... Maria the goose and the rest of the Echo Park flock have been relocated to the LA Zoo. She now gets weekly visitations from her best friend, Bob. There's something else new about Maria too. You'll have to read the story at the end of the link to find out the rest.
