I'm working from home today just to watch the games because I havent figured out what to use at work since we have mega firewalls.

Today I'm cheering for South Africa, France

The opening ceremony was great! So sad about Mandela's great grand daugther killed in a car crash, the driver was drunk, hope they lock him up!

She's not the only one. I got into when I lived in San Francisco complete with a Euro beau and an English pub within walking distance from my apartment. It was the perfect storm.

However, I'm not going to watch anything today. I'd rather do it in a social setting.
