YESTERDAY I published the blog a few seconds after the result of the contest was known and I warned that today I would give my opinion about what I saw. And for the record, contrary to what I usually do, that I can't stand even a complete television program, I followed the final of this contest in its entirety. Let's start: • If I were the General Director of TVE, I would suddenly dismiss the luminary who decided the formula for choose the winning song. It was guaranteed that whatever the decision was there was going to be trouble; and there has been, is happening and will continue. The most comfortable and incontestable alternative would be to opt for any of the three options that they mixed: a group of experts, a broad popular jury or open voting and whatever God wants. But not; From what you can see they wanted trouble and they have trouble. • The composition of the professional jury, a mistake; professional of what? With the quantity and quality of experts in Spain, starting with those who make the great musicals for radio stations, going to fall on those who fell shows that the ruling already comes from above•From the beginning it was quite clear that the The system was going to lean towards the themes of Chanel, Rigoberta and Tanxugueiras. • I didn't like Rigoberta and it also had a point of politicization. The Galicians were the most powerful, the ones that exhibited a better look and the most different from everything else. And they reached the public. As for Chanel, she went to the fashion of reggaeton, wearing palmetto. There are hundreds of them like her, but it is what she takes. A sector is going to crucify her because she has not gotten involved in compromised letters, nor in subliminal messages, nor in inclusive language, nor has she winked at radical feminism. But she won and from now on we have to try to make it look as good as possible • What songs did I like? I have no objection to saying so, without meaning that I consider them the best. They are exactly what I liked. The ones that I could listen to now while I write, with more pleasure: “Calle de la llorería”, by Rayden (4th place); "Rafaella", by Varry Brava, (6th place); and “Quién lo diría”, by Gonzalo Hermida (ranked last).•I wanted to publish a summary of what was on social networks about BenidormFest, but I gave up in view of the rubbish that has been published. Radical feminists and certain sectors related to politics have vomited bile. The writer Lucía Etxebarría put her finger on the wound: “If we had protested both the electricity bill and Eurovision, the government would have already fallen. Perhaps that is why they incite you to protest against the Eurovision jury”.————————————–READERS SAY THEIR OPINION————————————–TWO regulars on the blog, they say this: • SHOW OFF WITHOUT DENYING IT: “Regarding that festival that was held in Alicante, it can only be said that if this filipica has been set up in recent weeks with the qualification for Eurovision, it is better not to think about what could have happened if any of the favorites of twitter would have really reached the championship... I am not an expert in music and the concept of a musical contest seems paradoxical to me, how is a reggaeton valued against an aria?, so I cannot comment on whether any of the groups or singers it has more or less merits, possibilities or qualities. The selection of tweets that El Progreso has made in its digital edition is very curious, and I come to the deduction that some on the port side have taken this bullshit as a reissue of the civil war and wage it against the jury or lament that their "division" has caused a "defeat" and opinions of that level. Even yesterday in the debate that TVG did after the contest, a terrible written comment from a viewer slipped in, alluding in a derogatory way to the Spanish-American origin of the winner. Not to mention that the same public representatives who do not have time to plan the arrangement of the hole in a sidewalk or worry in a parliament about the problems that worry most people do have it to carry out thoughtful analysis of the lyrics, choreography and messages of the songs in this contest. Bread and circus millennial version. • ROIS LUACES: (In the peace of this corner I will confess that I am surprised by the passion of so many with the mentioned group, because I believe that if they have been highly voted it is the Galicians around the world or at home who have fact, and the attachment to what is ours could perhaps ask for something more than a music that is almost a folkloric plagiarism and a staging of épater le bourgeois quite liadilla and blurred. They could be mellores, as melandreiras)—————— ————————SUNDAY ROUTINE——————————————As always I was up shortly after eight in the morning and at half past eight on the road to refuel, look at the tire pressure and buy the Madrid press. A degree below zero and very thick fog.I came across two cars and I was very careful at a stop. I looked several times before passing because if someone came without lights, they would pass me by. In situations like this, it was said before "you don't see a donkey three steps away". Well something like that.
Last week I passed the ITV with no problems, but with some trifle as an obligation. I had to change the front registration plate because the sun had softened the colors of the little European stars. One thing that I recommend and that works very well for me: I haven't personally passed the ITV for years. The mechanic who usually repairs my breakdowns goes and everything is simplified a lot. He takes care of everything and saves me paperwork.-x-x-x-I didn't take Toñita out for a walk until almost mid-morning. The very thick fog and 0 degrees on the thermometer continued. Walking down the street was not the most pleasant and she knows it well. He left after loitering, did what he had to do and 10 minutes later he was back in his place, next to the heating.-x-x-x-
Firewood cutting session; not much time; a couple of wheelbarrows, which is what I need for the morning and a reading session, while on TV I watch those programs "Callejeros viajeros" and "Spaniards in the world"-x-x-x-what if I didn't follow Nadal? A bit at the beginning and when I saw how bad things were going, I preferred to dedicate myself to something else. Eyes that do not see... Sometimes I am a man of little faith and the truth is that I did not believe in recovery. Then I celebrated it like the most. The largest in the sporting aspect and in parallel in the human
-x-x-x-As usual, the after-dinner movies on TV made me flee from the small screen. I took advantage of those moments of the afternoon of sun and a relatively pleasant temperature to go for a walk with Toñita.-x-x-x-At sunset, when once again the sunset offered an impressive image on the horizon, I picked up the ax for a while and collect firewood for the rest of the night.-x-x-x-In the absence of television that I like, I put the radio in the background and read a little of the latest novel by Donna León. I have been entertained by most of his novels, but the last one let me down. We will see this one that is quite recent.
——————-ANTONIO——————-FROM his Cacabelos where he lives, Antonio Esteban came to Lugo. As always early. He brought me his book "The literary kitchen of Antonio Esteban" which has just come out and the first edition has already sold out. I've taken a look at it and I find it very entertaining. Antonio has had the ability to mix gastronomy with narrative and fiction very well, and the result has been very gratifying. Now he is waiting to set a date to present the book in Lugo. It is not possible now to specify it because everything depends on how the pandemic evolves. On the other hand, as Antonio preaches and gives wheat, he brought me a series of samples of his skills in the kitchen: tomato preserves, bell peppers and tuna, all prepared for him.—————————————————SURVEY: SURPRISE RESULTS————————————————— ON citizen security on Lugo nights, that is now in question, last week they carried out a survey on Onda Cero that provided surprising results. They asked if it was considered necessary to increase the measures to control crime and it happened that 22% of those surveyed considered that it was not necessary. In other words, 22% believe that what is happening is not at all important and that we are fine the way we are? A bit strange, right?

ALBERTO Garzón has once again brought up the subject of Spanish meat; this time he has not questioned its quality, but he has insisted on the macro-farms and in rejection he has put the other thing on the table again. We recall that Spain exports 2 million tons of meat, the quality of which was clearly defended by the European commissioner for the sector to alleviate the loudmouth of the Minister of Consumption that he would do better if he were concerned about the prices of basic necessities (energy and fuel, for example) that are sinking the economy of the Spaniards and especially of the less affluent.————–SEEN————–MYSTERIOUS discoveries in the Arctic:

—————EAR—————WHEN tennis is such a visual sport and so varied in its situations, it doesn't seem easy at all to broadcast a tennis match, quite the opposite. However, yesterday several stations chose to show Nadal's match competing with television. So many hours making the audience, a majority not very expert, imagine what is happening on the court is still heroic, especially when tennis matches sometimes last forever. Yesterday, for example, five and a half hours. Of course there are still more complicated and original transmissions. A colleague told me years ago how in La Rioja, his station broadcast mus championships.——————-READED——————-This article by Alfonso Ussía in EL DEBATE is titled “Las cositas del CIS”: It happens that nothing happens.

A few days ago, the nauseating man declared at a lunch meeting that he was no longer a politician and could tell the truth. On January 26, from his non-political status, he leaked, before being published, the latest CIS poll prepared with a view to the upcoming elections in Castilla-León. That is to say, that the Center for Sociological Research, an organization at the service of all Spaniards, not only cooks the results of its surveys but also advances them to a guy who, currently, is nothing, except for being indiscreet. When he realized his serious mistake that left his friend José Félix Tezanos at the foot of the horses, he deleted the message, but without success. It had already traveled all over the social networks and scandalized the broad sector that brings together decent citizens. Not because of the content of the survey, which is of no interest to anyone, because Tezanos has turned the CIS into a hovel of foolish manipulations, typical of a group of drunkards, and its results are never produced. The serious thing is that an individual who does not represent anyone, someone expelled from politics by the polls, has direct access to the CIS and allows himself the luxury, with his insurmountable face, of making public a survey that has not yet been published.Tezanos it is deceptive in its appearance. He seems like a venerable character. It could be a director of Iberdrola, with a much better appearance than Carmona, and the president of the company himself, Galán. Although many ignore it, the photographs smell. An image of Iglesias is always accompanied by the stench that condenses between the sweat from the wings and dirty hair. The image of Tezanos gives off aromas of English lavender and Heno de Pravia deodorant, which is my favourite. That photograph of the members of Sortu, with David Pla in front, smells of blood. And Sánchez photographed, gives off patchouli effluvium. For all this, Tezanos is very dangerous. His presence does not provoke suspicions of closeness, when it would have caused massive exoduses. He is a poisoner of the truth, a hooligan druid at the service of an arrogant master and as false as he is. A druid in dizzying fall, like poor Panoramix, who since Goscinny's death has done nothing but nonsense. Although, in the case of Tezanos, nonsense and occurrences very well paid by the Spanish who tries to deceive. And to top it off, an irresponsible man who blows the nauseating results of his manipulations in advance. It was written by the poet Hare Tagore, Rabindranath's great-nephew. They are the CIS surveys that Tezanos manipulates, Dirty as the one who pees And does not wash his hands Dirty like the one who gets them ahead of time and publishes them. And dirty as the lies it contains to feed the confusion and deceit. It happens that nothing happens. Sánchez does not go to Congress, and nothing happens. An elderly kicker with cancer gets the Attorney General to intervene to get his trial suspended, and nothing happens. The Government has as its most loyal support the former head of ETA, and nothing happens. The despicable minister who hates Christianity and destroys concerted teaching, is named Ambassador of Spain to the Holy See, and nothing happens. And a thousand other things. Do the CIS tidbits matter? They matter. But since nothing is going to happen, well nothing and it's over.—————————— ON TWITTER——————————•MARK: “Maybe it's time for Rafa Nadal to change his category and become the reference used to define other people, facts and events.

When I was giving up, on the Internet I found interesting data from the ASPA magazine. I highlight so that you know something more about it: ASPA corresponded to the acronym of "Weekly News of the German Press" It began to be published on December 11, 1937 in Salamanca, by the Press Department of the German Embassy in Spain. In November 1941, it was renamed "German Social and Political News", its last known issue being the one corresponding to the second half of November 1943, number 22 of that year. a price that is more or less around 17-18 euros. I have no record of what they cost at the time, but I think distribution was free. There was frequent reference in the magazine to the Blue Division, which had a propaganda section headed by a German captain named Kessler and reporting to the Staff of the Division made up of Spanish volunteers. This propaganda department produced 142 press reports, 150 news communications, 383 radio reports, 6,182 meters of shooting film and 147 graphic reports. What happened was collected in various publications and supports that are indicated below: -In publications of a general nature and information in Spain, all the media echoed what was happening on the eastern front, such as VANGUARDIA, ABC or the magazine WORLD.- It also appeared in media clearly dedicated to propaganda in editions such as the German magazines ASPA, SIGNAL, NUEVA EUROPA, ADLER or the Campaign Sheet.————————————-READER'S CORNER———— ————————–•PIVOT: Another sporting joy on Sunday, with the pass over the stone that the Manresa team gave to Paco Olmos and the team with which he cheated on us.
