Galavision is almost as much fun. At any given moment,
you can turn to Galavision or Univision and there's
an 86% chance the show will involve a young woman who could
be Selma Hayek's sister. And S?bado Gigante! What a show.

I wish they'd just fill up all 999 channels on my DirecTV
with all those crap-filled channels from around the world,
so I could find the gems on my own. Perhaps my favorite
show is the Japanese "This Old House," or the Finnish
fishing show, and I don't know it yet. They could fill
ten channels with "The Best of The World's Community Access
Channels" alone. Or what about a Akihabara channel with the
latest gadgets we can't buy yet?

Uh oh, now we've given Sellam the idea to pitch that
"This Old Computer" pilot to TechTV. Spin-offs! Books,
t-shirts, custom pocket protectors, videos, trips around
the world to visit collectors and museums! Not to mention
the groupies.
