So, you might not think that I am a sports. But I am for soccer. and it's world Cup time again. Four years ago I got up at 4am to watch games. Luckily this time a round the time difference isn't so bad.

you probably don't care, and that's cool. mainly I wanted to post a link to the schedule for my own purposes.

I haven't really picked a team to root for. I mean of course I want USA to do well, but of course they probably wont make it too far (if they get out of the group phase at all). I always like England and France, which probably makes no sense to some people. The Netherlands have been a favorite ever since Bergkamp. It would be cool to see Germany win at home, I wished they had won last time. Basically I just love to watch soccer; I don't care who wins.

Here are the rules I came up with today for who to root for:
1) Root for USA
2) Root for England unless it violates rule 2
3) Root for place I'd rather live unless it violates rules 1 or 2
4) In case of tie in rule 3, root for the underdog

There's a problem with your state machine there. You'll always end up rooting for England.

cool to hear from you. sorry I never responded to that other post. I lost that cushy desk job. I was unemployed for over two months, getting by painting and doing yardwork. now I'm back at Fedex.

but grad school starts aug 23rd, so it's just a summer job.

Too bad about the cushy desk job. Those are nice. I've just come off a six-week unemployment stint myself. The whole temping thing is pretty prone to that. Fortunately, this is the first time it's really hurt me financially, since I've held a part-time job all along as well.

Congrats on grad school. UNC?
