FIFA Fever

These days I seem to be easily swayed into becoming a fan of something that I never would have given the time of day to previously. Lately, I've been flitting from one phase to another faster than the moon. Just jumping on the bandwagon, or passing fancies maybe.

Most recent acquisitions:
  • The 4400 on USA - recently got caught up in a marathon that explained the whole thing. I got absorbed immediately.
  • American idol - because of Taylor Hicks. I was rooting for you since the beginning!
  • World Cup soccer because of Steve. I had to add content to my yahoo pages so I could keep up, get the latest match results, etc... I was dissapointed I couldn't watch any matches live on the web - but I guess can listen to the whistle blows on yahoo's live match. Why have sound if that's all you get?
Oh, and apparently I am the 'kiss of death' for teams however, as every team I chose to root for, or even thought about rooting for has lost so far. I will stick with them though and not jump ship yet! Go Ukraine!

You better stay away from Germany then... Go Germany! (I should really catch up on the games standings... )

I'm happy there's someone else into The 4400 as I am! I'm excited that the new season has started.. and.. Sunday is also the season preimer of the Dead Zone.

I also find myself become entranced by this "soccer".

Darn you Steve and your cunning ways!!

Gone a week - and all I saw on TV was the USA match. Uh... let's not talk about that. Ukraine is still in it though!! I promise not to pay attention to any more teams.
