As this is a Vent and Rant thread, can I just vent my spleen a little about the Eurovision Song Contest. Really, just rename it the 'Who's got the most friends / strategic allies' contest. That way, we could get rid of the tiresome having to listen to songs bit and just watch the voting.
Well aware that this may well mean nothing to all the transatlantic members reading, however, if the US State Department ever want a snapshot of European national allegiances then they could save money on spies etc and just watch the Eurovision Song Contest - seriously, somebody over there suggest it to them and mention that I'll take payment for the idea in any currency.
Also...I almost forgot...when the hell did Israel become part of Europe? Jeez!
