I've worked with Grant in the past... nice guy with a great sense of humor. Sad... I heard he had been treated earlier in the week for a respiratory issue... possibly bronchitis.
Epic Final. I have been watching every World Cup final since 1986. 1986 final was played in Mexico between Germany and Argentina. Maradona was my childhood hero so I was rooting for Argentina that day and I was super happy. Since that final, today's final was the best ever I watched. Maybe even better than the 1986 final for me. And bickety is right. Fuck France the colonizer country.
