Al and Peggy,

I can't wait to watch the game between Portugal and Brazil (and also get some work done)!

Now that I have seen so many soccer balls on your flag quiz, one of them finally hit me!!! 

You two are so creative!

Can only imagine the fever in USA right now Pat, they were one of the underdogs and now look....Go USA Go! 

We're the same Margo, but this is world history and since we don't have a team playing our eyes are on our big brother!

Silvia, LOL, a lot of times, we are being informed by other AR's!!

It's always great when your team is coming from behind and doing good Yvette! Go USA Go!

It would be for sure Wanda, but you would have to have ear plugs. Can you imagine someone with one of those horns behind you???

Ya, too bad about Italy Ellen, but there is always the big U S of A to root for!
