So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Blood Pressure is just about to blow. I have been arsing about for the past hour trying to connect to my broadband service, just as I have for the past week and not getting very far at all. When I do connect it chucks me out when it feels like it. Their service desk of course closes at 6.00pm, about 5 mins after I get in now that I let the train take the strain. At least I don't get traffic stress no more. I am home early tomorrow though and they better be able to help or they can take their pile of cheap cable shite and stuff it.I'm not bitter about the Czech Republic's defeat. Well maybe a bit. I finally thought I should put some dosh on them, �1 Czechs to win 2-0 Baros to score first after Reidski won some cash on Portugal and Ronaldo. Still more exciting than the lottery and better odds too.
What is it about the Greeks then, totally unfancied and here they are in the Final. All you need are some players who aren't world class, get a German manager in to do the thinking and the organising and hey presto! World Cup is suddenly looking good. What do you think the odds would be for Scotland to reach the Semis then?
Oh and I had fish for dinner 4 hours ago and I haven't been to the loo yet. Things could be looking up.
Oh and there is a bug going around. Not only has Reidski started a Blog, now so has the Radical Postman. Trendsetter me.
