Obligatory World Cup post

SAU 2, TUN 2. Amazing match, actually. Neither team gave up, and a truly pretty goal at 93 minutes by Tunisia's Jaidi.

Next up, Germany vs. Poland. That is going to be an interesting game. A little tense, with Polish hooligans threatening violence for the past few months.

I am so very glad my boss is out of the office today - I can turn his flatscreen to face my cube and have the game up while I obsessively refresh the Guardian's minute-by-minute blog.

I tell you what - if Italy gets to the Final, I'm not going in to work that day, I'm going to stay in my neighborhood and watch the match with the insane Italians. Whee!

Those Guardian minute-by-minute things are great. If you read them aloud, it's miles better then the commentary you get in the US!

Especially now with a frustrated reporter! Man, this match is awful.

I don't know how I missed this on first go-round....

I miss your neighborhood. They adopted me, fed me, and made me homesick in the span of 48 hours. Good plan for the finals. You won't regret it. Insane is the right word.
