Our reps in Germany

Just received this via sms from J. Lo. Wonder if we can find a plug in that accepts posts via sms.

“Just got tickets 2 the Aus v Ita game at cost price! Hahaha. Sucked in mate, enjoy the game in Melb as i soak in the sunshine in germany.Thinking of u guys ”

Be sure to let us know what the atmosphere was like. Post pics and vids!

Update from admin: I’ve finally managed to download the video by summoning the collective geek knowledge, and particularly with a good suggestion from Tuong. Will make it available here soon, maybe after I cut out the extraneous bits.

Live, from QV Melbourne. I think it’s something to do with singing with the stars/”It takes two”.

TGIF VIII

AUS 2 – CRO 2

Australia is through to the round of 16! I don’t think I’ ve ever been this excited over a draw!

Woke up early this morning but accidentally snoozed through the first few minutes so I missed the first Croatian goal that was scored before they even finished singing the national anthems. Tense game and there was a lot at stake for both teams so as you’d expect the ref blew his whistle quite a few times. One of the highlights would have been Josep Simunic getting three yellow cards before the ref remembered to send him off. What a controversy that would have been if Croatia had beaten Australia.

I received an SMS from Phil right after game. Letter by letter transcript:
Hey Hp! Check out www.Foxsport.Com.Au on Aust vs Croatia. James n i r there with interview after the game! Put it on qweop website! Having a ball at Stuttgard

That has to be the most coherent message I’ve ever received from Phil. I’ve had a look at foxsports.com.au and I can’t find anything – possibly not up so quickly. If anyone locates it, post it up here.

I want to see…

one of you bikers do this!

Interesting links for the day

Just some interesting reading for the day.

One is a slightly novelty news item:
A LAKE FULL OF VODKA

The other is more interesting:
11 cousins have stomachs removed to avoid cancer risk

Before reading this, I had assumed the stomach had more of a role in absorbing nutrients during the digestive process. Turns out the stomach more or less just breaks down the food and the nutrients are absorbed mainly in the small intestine.
