Blogs everywhere are tieing themselves in nuptial knots figuring out how the Royal Wedding relates to their content. Above the Law outdoes leading legal blogs with a three-part series, The Royal Wedding: A Legal Look. In our view, the best part of their coverage is this observation about the accent of a U.S. lawyer working in London -- that it is "that weird Madonna accent Yanks acquire when they’ve been in London too long." Good to know that Michigan natives continue to be trend-setters, even as ex-pats.
Our own Royal Wedding-legal thought-moment happened this morning when switching to Sirius's 60's music channel to avoid Royal Wedding overload, just in time to catch a caller to the program say, "Hey, yeah, I'm just sitting here watching what's-their-names goin' to the palace." My condolences to all you trial lawyers on your ongoing struggle to get jurors to pay attention.
