It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.

Very entertaining game between Brazil and Mexico today, even if it did end in a draw.   However much it pains me to say it, I agree with the one commentator they need to build a statue of the Mexican keeper in Mexico City after that performance.

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Some days, the other dude just eats your lunch.  It's a shame they lost that game; that was an awesome goal

Well Spain is done and Chile looked really good.  It felt like Spain had no backup plan when they were pressured like that.  You have to give credit to Chile because they really never let up on the pressure.  Spain failed at one of the most basic tasks of soccer, adapting during the run of play.  They just didn't adapt, they just kept trying to do the same thing over and over again even when it was obvious it wasn't going to work.  The Chile v. Netherlands game looks like it could be very entertaining.

Not when you work with an obnoxious Spain fan. Then it's hilarious.  ;D

I haven't seen that many English flags in Cornwall UK since I've been working here.   :)

I'm bummed that England didn't win yesterday.  They had quite a few opportunities to get some goals in the second half.  Uruguay missed some good good shots as well.
