Those crazy soccer players...

For those of you not currently tuned in to the Germany/Turkey Euro 2008 Semifinals, it is hard core.  

Catie currently has her friend Adelle and Adelle's mother in town, both from London.  Adelle is Catie's friend from London when Catie was in pharmacy school at the University of London before she transfered to MUSC in Charleston.

Well, they are big football fans, thats soccer to us Yankees (Americans!).  Two guys just had quite an encounter...they jumped up for a ball and hit heads.  And I mean HIT heads.  The back of one's head hit the eye socket of the other.  Both came down bloody.  And apparently you can't make substitutions in a soccer game?  I don't know.  Well, they STAPLED the guys head on LIVE TV!  No effort was made to hide it!  And the SuperGlued the other guys cut under his eye!!   Apparently this is not typical of European TV.  Even the Brits (as we call Catie's friends!) were surprised to see that!

More later....if anything happens worth telling y'all about.

And Dad went to go check on my car......keep your fingers crossed.
