(Posting from New Zealand, no matter what the little flag seems to say.)

The press have been quite enthusiastic about the Galaxy’s visit here, I have to say, and seem genuinely charmed by Becks.

There was an adorable segment on the state news channel in the sports section comparing the lifestyle of Ross Aloisi (captain of the Wellington Phoenix, brother of the Aussie international) to Becks in this really tongue-in-cheek way. And the game’s being broadcast on a state channel, too.

I’m a little sad that I commented below too late to inspire you to try to rhyme “f*cking whores.” Oh well, maybe next time. And since cussing during your last post did not alleviate my annoyance, might I just say that I am already humiliated? (Can you tell me how to make a scowling grrrr icon, I seem to need them more than I would have liked).

On the bright side, the press and public seem so pleasant down under, and fun, and seem to be quite enjoying themselves (very graciously). Prime addition to my relocation-if-the-U.S.-continues-to-annoy-me list!
