your being watched

one thing i’ll say for london, they have a lot of c.c.t.v. cameras. i would think that at any location in london, you probably have a camera on you. kind of creepy. does it help?

i watched the manchester united vs newcastle match at a pub down the street. what can you say, rooney is a force. i then decided to hop up to highbury to see if i could get lucky and score a ticket. there were tickets floating about, but i was unable to pull down a transaction. no joy. i think my next try will be the west ham vs bolton fa cup match on wednesday.

regardless of stat, i’m not doing very well with the overall goal. of course, the goal is as many matches as i can. it’s really an unfailable task. it’s just assumed that it will be greater than zero. 2 weekends is killing me. at least now that i have a place lined up i can concentrate full time on getting tickets. should that really be a full time job? i do need to try and see some of the league 2 games as well to get a feel for what the lowest division is like.

i almost forgot, i have pictures. if you’ve seen the real “fever pitch”, this should look familiar.

look kids, big ben, parliament.

apparently, some people are against that war. no not the war on drugs, the other one. these signs were opposite big ben in the square.

i’m glad i’m writing this, because it would probably be boring to read it. maybe something exciting will happen to night. although, it’s a sunday so that seems unlikely. i’ve got to eat. in case you were wondering.

    recorded the Man U-Newcastle match only to come home and find that the cable was out but only on the downstairs tv. son of a biyotch.

    very unlucky. manchester totally dominated. good game.

    Juve – AC Milan was pretty boring. Ronaldo fired a penalty into the keepers hands (practically). I’m guessing the papers over there are saying he is soon to be out. Have you inquired any on watching MLS games or the CONCACAF Champions cup?
