A newish year – a new post. Followers of this blog must be ecstatic, not that there are any, at least not to my knowledge. As usual I don’t have anything to say so you might as well stop reading now. Yes, now.
No? Still with me, eh? Well, it’s your funeral. Anyways, I’m using a new font again, contradicting earlier posts I bet. I do have a vague recollection of having written something about that earlier but I’m too lazy to check.
So what is going on? Well, in Ikariam; we, that is Red Army, are still warring against the evil empire that is Goo*. I’ve been using air raids and rotating waves techniques to great effect. I and my wife also managed to get our accounts banned on the US server but now I’m back with a smaller account after a month on, what one might call, Garden Leave – a popular term for booted managers in football, which brings us to what some call “the real world”.
FIFA World Cup is coming up, opening games are within a week. This time South Africa hosts the festivities which, come to think of it, mean that I haven’t got a clue at what time of day/night the games will be played . I have got to look that up.
Favourites to win are the usual bunch; Brazil (no way), Argentina (maybe, but with Don Diego Maradona as coach anything is feasible), Italy (not again, surely? They’ve hardly got anyone who can who can kick a ball), Germany (Lady Luck is a powerful ally as they’ve shown numerous times before.), England (well, at least if you’re English. But I do hope they pull it of) and Spain (reigning holders).
Spain will of course win, now that they’ve stopped disappointing everyone as was their tradition up until the victory of 2006. No other squad even come close in skill and depth.
Personally I’m still looking for a job, living on lentils and hope alone.
What is new though is that yesterday I got talked into writing for Meadow Music, a blog about new and upcoming Swedish music. Something I know diddly squat about ( I barely recognise music when I hear it( probably because much of it nowadays – isn’t, in my humble opinion)), but hey, who knows – maybe someone will get a kick out of it. Having said that; do check it out, there are other writers who actually do know what they are talking about.
Lastly I would just like to add that my hope for the future is a unified, borderless world with David Mitchell as its’ leader.
