no money; no problem

After much consideration (well not much at all really) I will be supporting Spain in tonight’s Euro 2008 final, despite having drawn Germany in the office sweepstake.

Such is my passion for my Liverpool boyzers, I am willing to sacrifice literally pounds to see Spain lift the cup and bask in European glory. I just hope they appreciate it πŸ˜‰

why the whale is a win not a fail

I am loving the fail whale at the moment, despite it usually only coming into my life when Twitter has temporarily popped its clogs.

Thanks to a post by the apparently zen James Governor (very relaxed about the amount of Twitter downtime these days), I now know who created the whale and it seems like the artist has tapped into the current conversation too as the whale is now microblogging here and has its own fanclub with a range of pretty cool merchandise! The whale-a-razzi tag is taking it a bit far though, even for a geek like me.

Anyway, here‘s a link to some more work by the artist, Yiying Lu – it is ace, check it out.

every one a winner…

Very chuffed that Spain is into the Euro 2008 final.

Let’s hope that my man Torres (plus his other red/country mates) puts on a sparkling performance and does his Liverpool fanbase proud.

Having pulled Germany in the office sweepstake though, I need to decide heart or bank account in terms of who to shout for in the final…
