*singing like Weezer* "Say it ain't sOoOoOoOo...." can it really be that "Zinedine Zidane a annoncé sa retraite internationale ." *sob* yes it's true, he's retiring from international soccer. That blows. He's so amazing. Sure he's a bit bald, but come on, he's wicked on the field. Interestingly enough Nutmeg* and I were discussing ZiZou's skills one day during the Euro Cup Nutmeg is a HARDCORE English fan (wanker!) whereas I was rooting for les bleus. Anywho we got onto the topic of Beckham vs. Zinedine lol and it took the turn of "If you could hook up with either Becks or ZiZou would you chose?" Nutmeg of COURSE chose Becks b/c of the crazy cash he makes on endorsement deals and because he's so pretty, i know he's so superficial (Nutmeg that is)*tsk*tsk* I on the other hand chose ZiZou, and no not just because he's French and therefore infinitely cooler than Becks, but because of his skills. Come on he was paid 46 million Pounds to go to Real Madrid *cough* Nutmeg, which makes that a world record fee. Well Zizou I take my hat off to you and bid adieu! International soccer is just not going to be the same without you! It's a good thing you're still playing for Real though :)
*Nutmeg: (male)(although some might say female)friend from high school who bears an uncanny resemblance to a hamster. Shauna had a hamster named Nutmeg so now the nickname is stuck for LIFE.
It's Caper Time!!!
Speaking of people I admire I really like Quincy Jones. I like Zinedine Zidane. I like well made commercials. Which means I loved the whole Adidas "Road to Lisbon" (you need quicktime to see it) campaign. When I see things like that it makes me wonder what the hell i'm doing in Canada. Europe. Europeans are so much more creative than we are! *sigh* You can put on anything and carry it off with such flair, if only I too were gifted with an intriguing accent and impeccable clothing. They are just so much cooler than us North Americans. Their commercials.
Armchair Athletics
Currently I hold the Canadian Armchair Athlete's title. I can't play sports but I'll darn tootin' watch 'em on the tele! It is with GREAT joy I welcome the Olympics into my home tonight. The next 13 days for me mean PURE unadulterated sports watching, Triathalon, Discus, Hurdles yes...even Speed Walking *woot*woot* I'm stoked.
Bring it on!!!!!
