Better Than Europe
I thought I was way too much of a snob to ever say anything good about "American Idol." I have a lot of low-rent pursuits and plebian passions, but the reality genre just doesn't grab me.
However.
Don Surber links to this video of the expected winner of the Eurovision song contest. Frozen frickken' NED on a stick! Surber recommends viewing with the sound off, but then you'll miss the American Exceptionalism Of The Day. She sings that flat and is poised to win? What I've seen of Idol, the winners can at least carry a tune.
UPDATE: Also from Surber: Hitler Sings The Jeffersons Theme. This is why we have an Internet.
