Well ..."You guys digging it down under?"<br /><br />Well the Socceroos are out of it now, even though we won our last game, and Japan went out yesterday to Paraguay on a penalty shoot out in extra time (Mrs Magpie is not happy about that), but yeah we're still digging it.<br /><br />We had a mid-season split round in the AFL which put half the competition on furlough on alternate weekends, which created enough time for people to give the World Cup a proper look, and soccer is very popular here anyway.magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08690258860393548951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428824763182540039.post-52753680088626771132010-06-29T15:57:57.190-07:002010-06-29T15:57:57.190-07:00I've long extolled the virtues of Hell Burgers...I've long extolled the virtues of Hell Burgers, BkA.

I answered, "No, just the occasional highlights on Sportscenter but if the US happens to make it to the final match I'll go to a pub to watch it with you." He replied, "You know the US is done, right? You lost to Ghana yesterday."<br /><br />So I suppose I haven't been following it as closely as you have, mate. You guys digging it down under?JBWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13293642610215334516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428824763182540039.post-87553945187185059342010-06-29T13:52:24.373-07:002010-06-29T13:52:24.373-07:00You'd like my uncle from California JBW.

It was about 100 degrees in Virginia that day, so they bellied up to the counter in shirt sleeves. I have to be happy with that image - just a couple of years ago, Russia was scared of Bush's wackoness to the point where they were developing new and bigger bombs. Now, they're having a jalapeno burger with Obama. I call that progress.Beekeepers Apprenticehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03147256400096114177noreply@blogger.com
