I forgot about the V Campeonato Mundial de Baile de Tango

ok, so i live part-time here in the tango capital of the world and, for all the attention i pay to it, i might as well be in hoboken... the II Campeonato Mundial de Baile de Tango (2nd World Tango Dance Championship) took place during my very first visit to this city, and now we're up to #5, but, in my semi-spacecase fashion, i had to see a story about it in today's reuters to know that it's going on right now...
