Australia! 3:1!

COME ON, AUSSIE, COME ON, COME ON.

COME ON, AUSSIE, COME ON!

We are reduced to singing 1970s TV advertisements. T'h bellowed this out last night to resound across the street. T'ridiculous children, being conservative fearfuls as all children are, went 'shh' and 'quiet, Daddy'. I went: 'It's the World Cup! You have to shout and bellow!'

And yay, my sister is back from Egypt and we can yack to our heart's content about the World Cup. She is even more of a fanatic than I am because I try to watch at least 5 minutes of every game but she watches the full 90 minutes of every single World Cup match. Then we txt and phone each other obsessively. Whee, it's such fun!!!

She's going to get her entire family Australia kits. 1111111

Plus: the one goal the Japanese did get against Australia was a shoved goal! The goalie was pushed! My brother-in-law is deeply embarrassed because the referee was Egyptian and my bil is half-Egyptian.

Plus. I won't go on. I realise my Flist is falling asleep. BUT THE WORLD CUP IS SO GREAT.

Soon I will make a post about what I love about the World Cup. And here I am at one with my sister: I truly love the 'world' in 'world cup'. I am not at all backing one team only. Okay, when it's Australia, I am happy, and when it's the USA, I have to be against them winning, and also, I can't wish Serbia luck, and also, I am for every single African team because they have no money and no opportunities and yet battle on so fabulously ... but I'm not like most of the people in the country I live in and hang national flags out of my car or watch only the England games. And if Germany decides to play a little more interestingly, I may even back them.

Unless they play against an African team. *g*

Tonight: Brazil!!!!!

france:switzerland *falls asleep*

When football looks like cricket, you know that it is LAME-O! If they think that they're going to retain their title walking round the pitch like Sunday pedestrians, zey iz wrong, man.

Brazil drool pics

I was as excited in anticipation of the Brazil game tonight as, in the past, I've been when Orlando Bloom was about to appear on Graham Norton. And Ronaldinho is like a modern Achilles. He is a Larger than Life Hero. The BBC commentators could barely get words out whenever he was on the ball; at several points, they just giggled helplessly.

And the pundits kept saying Brazil was 'mediocre'. If this was them playing a mediocre game, what are they going to be like when they're full throttle???!!!

They're all so beautiful as well! 11 flowers of manhood! And I'm not counting Ronaldo. But am counting his substitute, Robinho. And Juan! Kaká!!

David Beckham, eat your heart out. *g*
