oh dear

things have gone TITS up here in aporto

my colleague and i have had a vinho verte too many...and rather than asking important policy questions about interest rates, euro, subprime, the state of the world, or even world peace...it's all come down to ONE THING:

britney or aguilera?

we've taken it global. central bankers...finance ministers..top advisors...right-hand men to government leaders...so what IS it going to be?

we caught them off-guard i admit..but i have never seen a bunch of middle-aged men with beer guts so excited about something. finally something they could sink their teeth into.

cheers, from portugal
