In the meantime...

So I keep meaning to put up some pics from the 'Peg, but when I got a whole bunch transferred I decided the shots I did have wouldn't suffice. It looks like this is gonna be a pretty fun-filled weekend so I'll wait until after that.

Until then, here's Miroslav Klose, leading scorer at the '06 World Cup. GO DEUTSCHLAND!
