With the royal wedding taking place this Friday in London, this is unofficially Bad British Accent Week here in the states. TV will be filled with documentaries and news reports about William and Kate, and nearly all of them will be narrated by someone trying to sound very, very British.
 Over here, it’s a brief but welcome break from the steady flood of bad news. It’s very tempting to tune out the headlines and reports about things you and I can’t do anything about. All we need to see about how things are going are the prices in front of your friendly local gas station.
