Life Is Peaceful In Some Places

Americans are so engrossed in the war, and are constantly being whipped into a state of fear by this Administration. So it's a little startling to realize that in the rest of the world, life is going on at a more normal pace. Here's a news story that has no gloom and doom, is not violent, threatening, or controversial. Just a nice news item. I had forgotten there was such a thing. Very Happy

Believe it or not, most of us plain ol folk don't get whipped into a state of fear by this administration. In fact, hysterical laughing and disgust might be better descriptions of the emotion.

Can't access the story without being a subscriber. Can you give us a synopsis of it?

The Spanish crown prince has become engaged to a commoner, a divorced TV anchor. The Spanish people thoroughly approve and it will apparently be a big and happy wedding.

I don't understand why you are unable to access the story. You can't just click the link? Confused

I can click on the link but then it tells me I need to be a subscriber to read the story. I don't wish to be a subscriber.

We've got some very nice news in the papers in these parts, but I've been there and know what you mean. <sigh>

Butrflynet -- Gee, that's the first time I have heard of such a problem. I post NYTimes links all the time, but people seem to read them OK. Wonder what this is all about. Confused
