Argentina's first game in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa is about to begin. They play Nigeria. It's very exciting to be outside the US during World Cup. Robert was in Italy in 1990 and Japan in 1998 (and in LA for the final in 1994). He has little more than an anthropological interest in the event, but it reminds him that the "rest of the world" finds the World Cup to be extremely important. Extremely. Argentina has not won the World Cup for 24 years and Robert can tell you that it would be a tremendous uplift for the country if they did it this year, and a huge letdown if they don't do well.
It's fun to see so much of South Africa on television.
Anyway, Robert's lying low, watching the game on TV. He does not want to be standing around when they start to beat up foreigners and burn cars!
