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.
