Goooooal!

FIFA has announced that Germany will kickoff the 2006 World Cup by hosting the first game on June 9, 2006 in Munich. The final match will by played July 9, 2006 in Berlin.
Why am I bringing this up now?
Because you have to start planning now if you're going to get tickets and travel arrangements for the World Cup.
If you haven't been to a World Cup, it's hands-down the greatest sporting event in the world, and it's fun even if you don't go to any of the games.
Russell, Lark and Jimmie went to the 1990 World Cup in Italy.
Lark, Deline, Kyung and I went to the 1998 World Cup in France.
Lark and Deline went to South Korea in 2002 and Lark made a every entertaining documentary about it.
Are you thinking about going?
Lark can probably add a comment on how to go about getting tickets and making travel plans.
I highly recommend it.
