Maybe the Lord was trying to get your attention, you heathen!

I wasn't going to watch it at all, and my son had a change of heart and declared it "boring" when I mentioned we could turn it on to watch, but then when I was waiting for my wife to get back from her party so I could go to work, she called to say she was running a little late, and urged me to turn on the tv. So I did, and watched a couple minutes of the carriage ride after the ceremony. I have to admit, it was pretty cool. Who doesn't love a parade? I turned it off when the queen got out of her carriage and went inside the palace.
