ESPN loses the visual feed, not the audio, on Turkey v. Germany. Instead of going with audio only, calling the game play-by-play, ESPN went to the studio for some kind of round-table discussion.
Fucking bastards.
The producer should be fired, taken to the town square and have rotten tomatoes empalled about his neck and shoulders.
Because of this, all of the U.S.A. missed the 3rd and 4th goals. We caught the 5th and then missed the rest of the game.
In desparation, I went online, trying to find a radio station; no luckFinally, caught the ending on the house AM radio, Spanish channel.
How did you cope in your neck of the woods? ESPN claimed that there was a global blackout.

dog tired
| Berlitz, what can I say. Occasionally, we get these corporate clients, wives of engineers. The company pays for the lessons. The other day, I had class with a German milf. Euro 08 was on. We went to the Irish bar. I had an Irish coffee and a breakfast sandwhich and watched Germany lose to Croatia. She picked up the bill. That afternoon, I went to the Catholic school for our last class of the year. We had cookies, played some rancheras on the stereo and ran around outside All in a day's work. |

one step closer
during class, I took out my cell phone to confirm that the sound was off.
Lolita took notice.
"Hey Mr. Gringo Vasco, what's your number! We should chat! I'll send you a text!"
Not looking at her temptress eyes, I calmly respond, "that's innapropriate."
"Aw, come on, what's your number."
"Maybe when you're 18."

No longer a Temp!
I've just signed contracts at the two schools for next year.
Both contracts combined, I'm paid to teach about 17 hours of in-class and 7 hours of prep. per week.
I'll be on salary so I'll have paid holidays, sick days, two months summer vacation.
no benefits.
I don't really fancy a 40 hour work week so this suits me just fine.
By the way, the temp company keeps calling me and asking me about my plans for next year. How do I break it to them that I'll no longer be working for them and they will be minus two clients for next year. :-D
