The good was that San Antonio is a lovely city, nice airport, light traffic, got a free upgrade to a gas guzzling SUV at the rental car place. Didn’t see anything touristy, ate at the airport. Nice, uneventful flights (I generally feel better when I’m in control of the airplane, so uneventful is a good thing when I or Sarge aren’t doing the flying)
So now I sit on my couch once more, watching football in my PJ’s (not the vulgar American type football I watch in fall, but the nice English Premier League type I watch in summer. For anyone who gives a crap Liverpool is beating Bolton 1 – nil.
Having become bored with the news I find myself lacking oomph. I’m in need of a muse.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quite amphetamines.
Until then, whenever then is,
ARGH.
Captain.

"...not the vulgar American type football..."
Are you talking about what Americans call soccer and the Brits call footy?
I was forced to play rugby as a kid but preferred "soccer." As the old saying goes, "Soccer is a gentleman's game played by hooligans and rugby is a hooligan's game played by gentlemen."
I played for the rugby team here for a couple of seasons. Although it was more of a drinking team with a rugby problem. Which is why I quit.
He is, indeed. We are a Liverpool house. The boys are doing well this season.
I like that saying.
Indeed. I used to be a Newky, but then I married a Red. Now I root for Liverpool, and drink Carlesburg beer instead...
How's that for little sleep and too much caffeine?
"...a drinking team with a rugby problem..." LOL!
I would like to comment here but I don't know what anyone's talking about... :(
Hi Gayle, glad you found your way here. We're all making fun of the different uses of the term “football”. To the Brits (and Europeans in general) it’s what they call Soccer.
The rest is pretty much a joking tangent about the drinking proclivity within the sport’s players and fans.
Again, glad you stopped by. You’re welcome any time.
