I know there’s a lot of silly, crazy mania about the royal wedding, but this really “takes the cake”! Or, something about cake, anyway. On a news program this morning, they raced through coverage of the death and destruction from the twisters down south so that they could get to the important stuff: the royal wedding. And what was so important to do a “yeah, yeah, sure, sure…” type of report on the disasters in our own country? If you answered some beaming guy displaying his 30-year-old piece of wedding cake, give yourself a star sticker!
Yes! I’m not even joking when I say that they sped through the actual news to get to this guy who was proudly showing a correspondent a rotten old slice of wedding cake saved from Prince Charles and Lady Diana’s wedding 30 years ago. I kept hoping he’d open the box and all these maggots would flop out, or that it would be empty and then a scared mouse would run up his arm or something as he said: “That’s funny… It used to be here…” Oh, well. I guess you can’t have everything.
