A pop-culture consumer who keeps it, by design, in the shallow end of the pool.

Just discovered that the World Cup 2006, to be held in various football fields around Germany, will be broadcast entirely in hi-def content. The games will be live on ABC-HD, ESPN-HD, and ESPN2-HD. I look forward with great anticipation to the up coming matches. Should be an excellent championship — and have much, much more meaning than this manufactured world baseball classic the sponsors have thrust upon the viewing nation.
Before I answer why, let’s talk about the rules. Here, I chatter about unimportant things. I stay in the shallow end of the pool, speculating on pop culture fascination, the journey of Liverpool FC, while offering an opinion or two on gaming. Why? Because I enjoy the written word. There is both a precision and also freedom with its balance, flow, and elegance. And this corner of the Internet offers a place to dabble in topics which avoid anything with a fuse.
