++ IT WAS CHRISTMAS last night .. uh .. right. no, actually it was just a bunch of glasgow and man.u. fans. a whole whopping 66,722 of them! they say its the largest crowd to attend a sporting event ever in the pacific northwest beating theprevious record set by the women's world cup the last time it was in town. manchester united beat the glasgow celtics 4-0 with ruud van nistelrooy being named man of the match. the game was awesome. the pitch looked great. the play much different from american soccer. the fans not rowdy, only fanatical about the game. the weather perfect and the sunset incredible. what great night for a european soccer match.

overheard at work ..
"i thank you for your work and will see to it that you get credit toward helping humanity."
