Greetings From the Giant Americans



Aww, look at the gigantic young Americans greeting the shrunken British Royals.
Obama gave the Queen an iPod. She gave him an autographed photo. Which is the cooler gift?
Well, that would depend.
If Obama loaded it all by himself with a lot of cool R&B and funk, well, no contest.
Anyway, just when I thought Obama was cool in any situation, I heard the smalltalk he was forced to make with Liz n' Phil. Torture.
But how cool was it that Obama flew in his own ride? So what if it took up more space than three Eurocars and had to be moved from the Buckingham Palace driveway because it was blocking things up? It's still a cool ride.
Also, Barack and Michelle had to chitchat with Camilla. I hope Obama remembered to bring her an apple or a handful of oats as an ice breaker.

Somehow, seeing Michelle standing with Camilla didn't have quite the pizazz of Michelle and Princess Diana posing for pics. I wish we could have seen that.
The British royals have really gotten old and tired since Diana died.
Not to mention very, very tiny.
