How Dash Is Spending the Fourth
Well, there's a big football (soccer) match today, the French against, er, some other team and the bars are all overflowing with loud fans whose bladders are also overflowing all over the streets of my neighborhood (filthy Frogs). So I could join that crowd.
But I hate football (soccer), so instead I'm watching Colin Farrel with a bad attitude, but a better haircut, in Bruges. It's not just for lack of team spirit, it's also a reconnaissance mission, since daughter n° 1 is applying to finish her studies in Bruxelles (Brussels) and I figure I'll have to go visit her in Belgium at least once. May as well check out the action ahead of time. I don't like surprises.
I will tell her to avoid the Brits over there, however. They're bad news all around (and there's my Independence Day tie-in for ya), although no one does black comedy quite as well as they do.
