the summertimes in bloom

It's been a great week.  We got the cup.  BP may have slowed the flow.  The world cup is starting up (USA vs. England tomorrow!) and maybe best of all, its just hours from 5pm, Friday. 

I'm told that "retro" is anything pre-'96, which makes me feel sorta old. But given the ruling on the field, I'm picking "Don't Look Back in Anger" by Oasis.  It's a sort of shout-out to Hugh Honey, founding partner of this blog and a good friend.  Last fall I was spending some time in Europe for work and was lucky enough to have Hugh come visit for a while.  One night in Amsterdam we were hanging out at the GreenDragon, having coffee, and this song came on.  It was a spontaneous sing-along!!!  Every single person in the place went completely nuts.  People who didn't speak English were singing this song (in English!).
Thanks to Hugh and Vicky for the guest spot this week.  Have a good weekend everyone!
