one man's sorrow, another's fortune

          I don't really know if the saying up there is accurate but its definitely what it is for the English and the German football teams last night. There's a German term called "Schadenfreude" which means pleasure derived from others' misfortunes and how apt is that for the German team? The English may as well drop this piece of German word from their dictionary before their opponents realize that its in there, that they understand its meaning and that they can hurl the word at them and laugh. And laugh they certainly can because they deserved to win, they played "a little" better. My "better half" was in a foul mood last night as goal after goal shot into the English nets, i could have sworn i saw a speck of tear hastily wiped away from his cheek, well, that's an exaggeration but he was definitely at the point of bawling and crying his lungs out after the fourth goal...'
