I *lurrrrve* Ronaldinho! [smiley=smitten.gif]  Why?

1.  Because his name is Ronaldinho!  lol
2.  Because he's always smiling.
3.  Because I'd just love to pinch his little cheeks -- he's just so cute! :)

I told my (male) friend the other day that my favorite part about the World Cup was the bit where they all take off their shirts at the end.  Mmmmm-mmmm!!  You can believe I always watch the postgame show! :D

Well if you must know...  the beer was DH's and the wine was water and food colouring.  So yes, the drinks are props.  The kind of parent i am is one who has taught my kids about appropriate consumption of alcohol - and no, he didn't drink any of either drink.

that's some high quality prop orginization Pink.  Even to go for the food colored water.  I can't fault you for going all out.  Though, the kid was dressed in French garb, shouldn't he have been sipping champagna

Dammit!  ALL our teams lost... England, USA, Brazil, Japan (lol), and now Portugal (on whom DH bet to win the whole thing)!  Oh well, only out a fiver.

The look on that Italian player's face last night was worth it though!

Zizou!!!!   :o

I'm appalled.  And so very disappointed.

What a way to end a career.

Tsk, tsk.
