While the World Cup was great - for the world - this household is ice hockey/American football oriented. The Husband calls soccer/football kickball, as in what the little kids play. I wish there had been less controversy and more camaraderie. I do hear that they are planning on expanding the tournament to a whopping 64 games next time. I know it is great for the countries participating, but when you are only 1 of 64, doesn't it take some of the special meaning out of it? It's like a participation trophy. While there are 211 associations in FIFA, is it really special when a third will qualify for the big ticket? Hmmm...

I am seeing a trend in the promo materials out there. The Photos are usually softcore, with maybe some masturbation involved. The video goes into hardcore. To me, the photos fall flat and can use the boost from the trailer. Maybe just using the photos is safer these days? Maybe I will use the trailer on the version I use and submit the softcore photos. Sigh...

Other than that, we are enjoying a cooler, wet period in our summer. The strawberries don't like it, but their season is almost over now. Back to work for me.
