You can buy china plates, copies of Kate Middleton's ring, copies of the dress she wore to the announcement of her engagement, condoms that have a picture of William and Kate on the box and advise you to "Lie back and think of England" when you use them, stuffed teddy bears, posters, barf bags (they say "Throne Up" on them), you name it. The Royal Wedding is off the hook, and its popularity is only second to Diana's wedding to Prince Charles. Upwards of a billion people are expected to watch the Royal Wedding live on Friday. The whole world loves the Royals, and as it turns out, so do our neighbors in other galaxies.



UFOs are a royal tradition. Prince Philip is described as a "keen UFO follower" for the last 36 years. Prince Charles got chased by a glowing red object in 1986 while piloting a RAF airplane. The Queen herself is interested in crop circles and has been photographed inside one. Earl Mountbatten, uncle of Prince Philip, has been said to see UFOs up close. Given the long standing relationship that our friends from other worlds have had with the Royal Family, although they are not on the guest list, it isn't surprising that UFOs would want to attend Kate and and William's Royal Wedding. AOLNews reports:

Filer says his center averages more than 1,000 sightings a month, and he expects to get a few UFO reports from the area surrounding Westminster Abbey, the site of the April 29 wedding.

There are two reasons behind Filer's prediction: In the last few weeks, he's been getting reports from British Royal Air Force pilots who reported seeing UFOs over the English Channel, and, more importantly, he says the royal family is very interested in the UFO phenomenon.

It would indeed be an interesting thing if that interest was returned. What kind of gifts would aliens bring to a Royal Wedding? Hopefully not another toaster.
