its that time of the year again folks
time to dust off your ABBA flares and your Brotherhood of Man dance routines and embrace the nonsense that is Eurovision..
so come on then,stick your necks out and predict a winner,France is the fave for some reason beyond my comprehension but whats your choice?
the first semi final is less than a hour away..
In this order:
1. Slovakia
2. Sweden
3. Czech Republic
I have no idea what their songs are like, or if they even have songs, but they have some of my favourite hockey players in the NHL. Go Slovakia!

Yeah, I sure did. I am astonished that Norway did not qualify for the final. Even more astonished that our very own "Parasite Oscar" got into the final.
Once you're done flattening the Netherlands, maybe you could look at putting together some kind of big mountain in Tibet or work on getting the Sahara dried out.

which country was Parasite Oscar again? by the time it got to Finland i was starting to lose the will to live..was it me or was he that smug at the end of the song that you wanted to smack him with a dried herring?
the fact that Norway and Turkey both failed to qualify were big shocks but the biggest shock was Georgia making it to the final on Saturday with the a song that made Lordi sound like Westlife.. :-p

"I'm going to craterize my country" sounded a little prosaic.
All I know about eurovision is that if The Beatles came back from the dead, reformed, and were chosen as the British entry, the UK would still come last. It's time to flood the Channel Tunnel and isolate Europe from the British mainland again.

To soothe your pain a bit, The Netherlands ended up last of all participating countries. Quite an achievement, I'd say.

That's good to hear. I didn't think they'd be able to do it, but those village idiots have actually impressed me. I didn't think they could do *anything* I'd like, but I was clearly wrong.
