Cheri,

Thanks for the post. It helps to keep the herd in line from time to time :)

However, the devil in me can't avoid the following:

1. Dog's name: Bobi
2. Portuguese rock band: Xutos & Pontapés
3. Portuguese flag colors: they were the colours of the Portuguese 
Republican Party (as in the ones trying to make Portugal into a Republic in 
1910..)
4. No. There's no such thing. Children's beauty pageants are simply an 
alien concept to us. And a reality TV focused on a child would probably be 
illegal. We do have Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother. Unfortunately 
they're popular.

Feel free to delete this post.. I kind of expect that you should.
