What Are You Doing During The Big Game?

Anyone wandering through the absolutely silent streets of BA at the end of regulation time of today's match would have know about a minute later how few Argentines were sleeping.

The roar of the unseen fans coming from the buildings (on a warm day like today) would have made the lone pedestrian feel like he was in a stadium when the home team scored.

(I know from experience in 2006.)

At least they weren't roaring for a serial killer groupie.

I went for a bike ride up to Entre Rios, stopped for a coffee in Campana, only to find that at half time it was still 0-0, jumped back on the bike and sped up to Villa Paranacito, where I filled the tank, ate a banana, had a smoke and discovered that Messi had scored the winning goal and grinned all the way back to BA, knowing that my time had not been utterly wasted.

Bikes have no tanks to be filled, though you should top off your water bottle. Time spent filling a water bottle is far more valuable than any spent on soccer.

Who's going to Live Blog The Really Big Game since I won't be able to since I will be at TGI Fridays?

I nominate Garlic, just to give his wife a break from his nagging!

Apparently you don't have to worry too much about bein efficient with your daily schedule. You have enough spare time to post a dozen times every day about something so meaningless. In that case.. who cares about what the best use of time is?

Analyzing soccer takes but a few seconds. It's not like brain surgery, quantum mechanics or baseball.

What if there's quantum entanglement between you and an alter ego of yours in another reality? That other ajo may as well be a die hard soccer fan.

I think Ajo was trying to improve his Google rankings (with his previous signatures).

I hope the US beat Portugal (weird climate though for both teams)

Now that the ballgame is over, I can take a nap until it's time to feed the canine.
