Sprog!

The Chanel 9 folks are at it again -- with their, er, distinctive version of a Nativity Play. Music is supplied by La Republica's greatest pop stars, Trudi and Mikki Disco (the latter is what must be the most painful flying harness is show-biz history), Mary and Joseph are played by Vassilos Bubo (star of some 5,000 episodes of El Amora y El Passione) and weather lady Paoula Fisch (Mary has the easiest delivery in history), and one of the Wise Men brings Holiday Cheezy Peas instead of Myrhh (they are made with brandy butter). The spirit of the season? Well, it certainly made me laugh, and that's always a good thing . . .
