We have 12 channels of cable in our hotel in Budapest, including the Taunt-You-With-English-News-But-Block-Out-The-Sound Channel (fortunately accompanied by 2 other English-language news channels that do provide sound); the Aqua-Laser-Dampfbesen channel (a German-language shopping channel that only sells one floor cleaning appliance); the Italian-24-Hour-Freeze-Frame channel (today's selection: "Denti Bianchi", featuring a model in some godawful tooth whitening contraption); and 2 channels of MTV (Magyar TV, not that other one).
But what do we NOT have, in this cornucopia of cable? The
EuroVision semifinals, that's what.
WOE.
