A piglet for luck

This sweet little piglet, named Finale, is going to Berlin to bring luck to the German World Cup team. The full story is here.

I set the VCR for the Germany-Argentina game today. It's at 10 a.m. and I won't get home until about 4 p.m. I'm going to try to stay in an information-free zone so I don't find out who won before I watch the game. Unfortunately, it's not too hard to do here in St. Paul!

Please tell me the piglet won't come to a dreadful and bloody end. PLEASE?! You soccer fans get violent, you know.

That's mostly the Brits. I'm sure they're topping the arrest lists in Germany this month!

I don't think that they will kill the pig. Maybe if we don't become Weltmeister. No, just kidding! They won't.

The piglet as hostage! "Lose Argentina or the pig dies!"
