But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

She was certainly unreal!  I was totally distracted by the size of her waist!  Oh, and the shrieking.   ;)

I suggest watching with no sound, then you can make your own commentary!

Am I the only one who tunes in just to listen to Terry Wogan?!?  No other commentary is needed!  He's fab!
I think he nicknamed the female presenter Shreak.
But he makes ironic comments without being mean, just very funny.

just as cheesy as watch Miss America or Miss World really ...although Eurovision has more chances for a laugh.

He's a very wry, sarcastic - without being malicious, intelligent, witty presenter - I discovered him last year commenting on Eurovision, but now watch him on Sundays on BBC1 Points of View, and he also has a morning show on Radio 2 starting at 7:30; sadly, right as I'm leaving the house, BUT - I think if you go to BBC Radio online, you can listen to it anytime.

I wasn't going to watch this... then i got hooked... totally unbelievably HORRIBLE songs with mostly bad performances and choreography... and the thing that really really suprized me was the songs that did well... come on!!!! greece was not the best... malta's singer was great and the song wasnt too bad... latvia's song was nice... the 2 boys did a great job i thought and the sign language at the end was beautiful....but even more so i think ukraine shoulda won if not for any reason but what it's song represented... ahhh well there's no accounting for taste... maybe mine isnt all the great but omg no way greece shoulda won and moldova shouldn't have even been in the running

It's the difference between knowing the path and walking the path.

Lipstick? Where woman? There is no lipstick!
She wasn't kissing your lips my darling

What's it gonna be Merv?
Interesting deal
She'll do it. If she has to kill everyone in this room. She'll do it. She's in love.
*sigh*
It's amazing how the path of love is so alike to the path of insanity
