Post-Match Mania

Tim cahill shadowboxed the corner flag. i hope someone tries a pole dance with it. my prediction for aus vs brasil (they spell it with an 's', so should we. ah, yeah): zejlko kalac will replace mark schwarzer, who will be shifted to the midfield, although still be allowed to wear his goal keeper's garb. After watching the socceroos score thrice in the last 10 min to crush the dreams of the blue warriors, i wasted valuable time watching the czechs beat usa. still, if you want to make the most of the world cup, it's not about the quality of the games, but the amount you watch, especially the amount of sleep you miss.

Fortunately i saw a most amusing movie on channel sieben which relieved my sleepy soul during moments of united states ineptitude. It featured cameos from adam sandler and chris farley, but i don't know what it's called. i know i could find out at imdb, so why bother just now? anyway, this admittedly lame movie had several bits worth recounting.

an old man lies in hospital after a heart attack and shocks the protagonist by telling him he's his father. to still son's disbelief he retrieves a locket (trinket/amulet/capsulet) from under his hospital gown and opens it up to show the hero. "that's my you and my mother!... having sex!" it turns out that's the only way old man felt he could convince him. he then goes on to lament that in his day they didn't have high-falutin methods of contraception - like pulling out. Lateron, his other son (who knows he's his son) asks why he cheated on his mum, to which old man replies "she was there! who do you think took the picture?"

And during the 2006 World Cup Hsimah's blog was blorn.

Pole dancing is good, but I'd like to see a goal scorer celebrate by shadow boxing his opposing counterpart.

"Oh my goodness, a wonderful goal by Cahill as he celebrates by mock punching Hidetoshi Nakata to the rib region! Nakata looks unimpressed, but so would you be, the way he keeps dropping his left hand on a right hook."
