It was surreal. I remember watching Elton John play "Candle in the Wind" at Princess Di's funeral and thinking, "this is like a bad episode of the Simpsons!" It was so utterly ridiculous.

Surreal sums it up. The "outpouring of grief" seemed to take a media life of it's own. It's hard to describe it. And Diana's brother gave his self-righteous eulogy when he was treating his own wife far worse than Charles had ever treated Diana. Crazy....

Exactly. Remember how he promised to raise her sons? Where the heck was he when her youngest donned a Nazi uniform for a costume party? Or when the kid was smoking pot? Or... You get the idea.

The whole thing gave me immense sympathy for the republican movement in Britain. Aside from the Queen and the late Queen Mum, I would do away with the whole ridiculous German brood.
