Royalty

I have recently had a discussion with an American who chided me for not being excited about the royal birth. I explained that I found the whole thing depressing. She responded by saying that it was a whole lot better than what they had in the US. There, apparently, they have the Kardashians. She said that the British royal family was infinitely better than them. I asked if the Kardashians had their pictures on all the stamps, bank notes and coins of the US and whether they had the power to veto legislation. Apparently they do not. My American friend suddenly understood my constitutional concern. Big on constitutional issues are the Americans.

well that's a bit stereotype, innit .... all Americans are, duh, not like us Brits, eh
