Well, I didn't know we were playing by different rules. Apparently if any American makes a comment about ticket prices or the amount of money we've spent, we are COMplaining. If you make the same points, you're only EXplaining. I'll try to remember to hold you to your different standards next time. "We woke up 24 hours later. Yes was still playing. The same song."

Or, Ferry asks, are you the 'place' where casanovas go: Are you their alter, their place of worship, accommodating casanova while fulfilling your own pathetic need. I always thought that this line had more to do with 'Casanova' the facade/image - Casanova was a legend in his own lifetime so did he believe his own hype? It is something that anyone who has had a taste of fame or infamy must go through..(not that I can talk from experience ha ha but I am guessing) so at what point do you start believing in what the public at large think about you? when (or) do you start modifying your behaviour to fit that model?? I guess I am thinking about Ferry's 'old world charm'...

One of the best football/soccer games I have ever seen. The English captain, renown Swedish trainer Sven-Gvran Eriksson har transformed a team of trigger-happy individuals with chips on their shoulders into a cool, professional team that trust each other and do not buckle under presure. My wife, who is not into sports, and I sat and cheered and celebrated. In the world of cable TV, Sweden-Macedonia 2-1 btw, was on cable, but Germany 1-5 England was on national TV. Sven-Gvran Eriksson is quoted saying "I lack words, it is a dream today." and Englans's vicory is more important then Sweden's odd goal victory.
