    An elaborately staged presentation or briefing that lacks substance, arranged for public relations, selling, etc. Also, a presentation that is overly contrived.

    I am a show like that. You try getting 12 kids with autism to learn the days of the week. It's a very exciting show BTW :):arf:

    Sounds like GWB landing on an aircraft carrier and saying military operations were over.
