The what and who?
Does anyone in the US care about the coronation in the UK?

Interesting question. So far it will go slow. I’ll bet there will be one coin coming with King Charles III. We were already producing paper money with no Royal members on it. Of course the efforts to produce coins are diminishing so the mint might let them play out until they disappear with QE II.

Hooge!
The fly by started, firstly helicopters. Now jets with red, white and blue streams.
It’s good to see despite the steady rain coming down.
I remember reading that Queen Elizabeth’s coronation was also held on a rainy day. Fitting.
The only thing I find interesting about it was a short documentary about the restoration of the centuries old chair that Charles would sit on which happens to be covered with graffiti done by schoolboys back in the 1800's and reading about the car collection that Charles is inheriting. He received an Aston Martin DB6 convertible for his 21st birthday that is still part of the royal stable and valued at over a million pounds.
Oh, and to make fun of the women who are wearing ridiculous looking hats that think they are stylish but really look like lampshades from my grandma's house.

The cameras have turned their attention to ordinary Brits in the streets. This bigger than St. Paddy’s day in Boston! Tomorrow is a banking holiday for them.
When's the Kentucky Derby?

I'm thinking Chicken Cordon Bleu right now.
And then what happened?
What did the little runt that conquered half of Europe do next?
Not sure but he may have been reincarnated as Putin.
I just saw this story and wondered, was it done purposely?

You skipped a runt.
I know about arranged marriages. The Royals actually thought one would last in 1982? Maybe in 1882!
No, I don’t care too much about it but I did flip it on for couple of minutes. Even so, I do kind of like the whole royal family thing that’s iconic of Great Britain. Perhaps it’s just a throwback to an earlier period in history, but since it’s the most successful monarchy, I say, bring it on. I don’t think GB would be GB without the kingdom, I’m just nostalgic in that way.

Probably, Princess Anne is pretty tough like that. If not, it's divine intervention.I just saw this story and wondered, was it done purposely?

Oh ya, Adolf.
After the procession started Harry was left standing with Beatrice and other nieces and nephews. At one point he was standing by himself. Not exactly the Center of attention.I just saw this story and wondered, was it done purposely?

I'm very much doubt it was done purposely.
Harry got what he deserved, which is no formal part in the coronation, he couldn't have expected anything else. The blessing was that Megan declined to attend, she would have been a magnet for the cameras.
The surprise was that Prince Andrew seems to have been at least partially forgiven as he wore the Coronation garter robes which he wasn't expected to, not being a working royal.
Princess Anne did well to ride in the procession bearing in mind she is 72.
