Poll - Prince Harry - Beard or No Beard for Wedding?

[Alan]

Good God so much Royal Brit stuff on TV.
As an American i don't understand the sensation. Americans don't follow the Dutch or Jordanian royals, why the fascination with the British?

As a Brit I don't understand the fascination of Americans either. Our son was in the Junior ROTC at High School and when we went to the cadet ball a huge fuss was made of the junior ROTC King and Queen who were there complete with crowns and sceptres.

I’m not smitten with royalty in general at all and didn't follow the future king’s nuptials. Meghan Markle is an American, of course, so I am not surprised there is so much coverage in the US about this wedding. But good news, you can turn off the TV, and it will all be over in a week.

At least it’s not Kardashians.

I remember voting for Homecoming Queen in high school and college. As if real kings and queens were voted in!

I do have a good memory of Charles and Diana’s wedding. As usual we were not actually interested in the wedding and that particular weekend my wife’s teenager brother was visiting so we went for a hike to the top of a local peak close to where we were living (and where we live now). It’s quite a climb with wonderful views from the top, and there were a bunch of other hikers with a radio tuned into the wedding proceedings and lots of beer and champagne being consumed. So we sat and consumed our own food and drink and quite enjoyed the party atmosphere.

Not only will her heart be broken, but her checkbook, too.

It’s true love, I tell you. Maybe that Harry can scrape together a pound or two to help her out.

Prince Charles And Princess Diana always looked like they just tolerated each other . Harry and Megan look like love or strong lust . They are a cute couple .

Come over to my house and watch the wedding with me. We can wear fascinators and toast the couple together!

What are you watching, Entertainment Tonight 24/7 Channel? Anyway, to the degree Harry and Megan displace the Kardashians in the pulp press, I see it as a net enhancement in our national discourse. With the royals I get a more "relatable" family:
-- Compared to the Kardashians, closer to my income.
-- Compared to the Kardashians, behavior that is closer to what I would expect of myself in similar circumstances
-- Compared to the Kardashians, fewer changes of mates and other key players in the saga. It's just easier to keep track of it all.

I probably won't watch the wedding on TV, but I wish them the best. And, despite all their wealth and fame, I'd never want to trade places with 'em (Kardashians or Windsors, Tudors, Stuarts, etc!)

Re: Beard or no beard: I know the world is changing and we should all be open minded, but this is a time for tradition: I hope Megan doesn't have a beard for the wedding.

I had to Google “fascinators”

 

[HFWR]

Can’t vote from the ipad, but seems like a guy named Harry should have a beard...

Couldn’t give two shizzes about royalty, but used to know a king pretty well...

Hairy = beard

With Gin & Tonics or warm beer ?

Glad we straightened that out...

I answered Other because why the devil do I care?

All of CBS Sunday morning. Local news channel. Just a general all in media poof.
I've dropped cable and now know nothing about the Kardasians. If the memory of the name can be sucked from my brain and the space used for good thoughts I'd gladly pay!

I was Prom King , but I wasn't voted in. I gained that title through murder, war , and treachery like God intended.

Well, from the photos I saw in the morning paper, looks like a man in a uniform with a red beard married a lady in a white dress with a really long train, then drove away in a carriage pulled by horses. Now they’ll live happily ever after.

 

[pb4uski]

As usual, we were right.

He is not a future king.

 

[Nemo2]

He is not a future king.

I believe he's currently #6...a poisoning, a couple hunting accidents, and...who knows?

 

[MichaelB]

So, he may still be a once and future king?

 

[Dtail]

As William and Kate keep having more babies, Harry drops even further from kingdom.
How many hunting accidents before suspicions are raised? lol
