Having witnessed the Brazil versus Germany game, I cannot help but question what caused such a dominating team like Brazil to crumble like a house of cards. The German team played with such ferocity that it appeared as though they were competing against a group of amateurs. A comprehensive victory by the Germans – need I say more? If you read through this article, you will find a video montage that perfectly captures the game’s highlights. On the other hand, Holland’s game was nothing but a snooze fest. It is baffling that they brought in a specialized goalie only for penalty kicks and still did not utilize him. It seemed as though they were playing for penalty kicks, which is a testament to Dutch logic, but it did allow me to catch up on some much-needed sleep.
The Tour De France shot through the Chunnel this week (for some reason it started in Yorkshire this year, which made me start watching All Creatures Great and Small on Netflix again), well it was only one rider and he zipped through a service tunnel, but he did travel the entire distance which was kind of cool to watch. The race is back in France now, and former champions are dropping out like wild (thanks to treacherous roads and rain).

I was sad to read of the passing of William Tetley, former MNA for NDG (and a former Minister of Finance for Quebec as well) and the Dad of one of my childhood chums. One of my vivid childhood memories is going to a birthday party at Mr. Tetley’s house and seeing a machine gun nest (complete with 4 huge soldiers) on the front lawn of his house (during the October Crisis in 1970). It’s odd the things you remember from your childhood.

I was a bit cheeky this week with my poke at the SEO and search engines in general with Credit Card Balance Transfer Trick, did a little bit of SEO chicanery and got a lot of folks dropping by for all the wrong reasons. I view SEO trickery as bollocks (pardon the language my brothers in the UK).
I have been rattling around my archives lately (deleting some of the really atrocious stuff) and figured I should do a retrospective on the whole tuition thing, which gave you University Cost How Much ? For those just entering the game, you have my sympathies.
