Wow.

I still don't really believe it happened.

When people here in Israel think Pepsi and Coca-Cola are two different type of drinks because we call Coke "Cola". "I would like to order [food]" "And what would you like to drink with that?" "Cola" "We don't have Cola, we have Pepsi, is that ok?" "grr." It's called Pepsi Cola for a reason :thumbup:

Finished reading all 5 Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books again (understood it much better this time :smile: ) , and read "And Another Thing" too by Eoin Colfer. He did quite a good job imo.

West Ham didn't get relegated though, I was hoping that would happen just for that

The World Cup, the European Cup and the Copa America (South America) are held every four years. The AFC Asian Cup, the African Cup of nations, the CONCACAF Gold Cup (North America) and the OFC Nations Cup (Oceania) are held every two years. The FIFA Confederations Cup is held every four years, one year before the World Cup. It consists of all the winners from above tournaments and the hosts of the World Cup. International friendlies are usually played before every big national tournament, or every summer and winter break if I'm not mistaken. The World Cup qualifiers start two years before every World Cup. In Europe, there are 8 groups of six teams, and one groups of 5 teams. Every national team that finishes first in it's group is automatically qualified for the World Cup. All the teams that finish second in the group compete in a sort of mini play-off tournament, and the winners also go to the World Cup. It's basically the same in the rest of the continents, but with less groups and games are usually played during summer. The groups are determined by a draw (Lottery? I don't really know what word to use). The biggest rivalries in International football are Brazil vs Argentina, Netherlands vs Germany, England vs Germany and maybe some more. International football rivalries aren't that big. Big club rivalries are: Barcelona vs Real Madrid, Liverpool vs Manchester United, AC Milan vs Internazional Milano, Roma vs Lazio, Rangers vs Celtic, Manchester United vs Manchester City, Liverpool vs Everton, Arsenal vs Tottenham, Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid and there are much more, but the first three/four/five are the biggest imo. The Club World Cup consists I think of clubs who won their own continental club tournaments like the UEFA Champions League (Europe) or the Copa Libertadores (South America). The winners of these tournaments compete against each other in the Club World Cup. It's not a very important tournament. Biggest club tournament imo is the UEFA Champions League. Anyway, that's all. Hope I helped.

+1 I think Israelis feel more patriotic than people from other countries. I know I am.

Recovery leaked today, it's great

It pisses me off when sometimes teachers confiscate a phone after it rings, it's not as if he told someone to call him during class on purpose. Other than that, almost nothing is confiscated here other than real weapons, but people don't bring them to school anyway. All this laser\sharpie\whiteout ban you guys have is quite weird imo.

Eminem's new single was leaked (or maybe released? It was supposed to be released on friday) Anyway: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM-0MqlIjGc Good song. :thumbup:

Hopefully a few days with all my family, then abroad for skiing if all goes according to plan :thumbup:

If Liverpool finish 5th in the league but win the Europa League, will they be put in the Champions League next year?

Liverpool :wall: Just too unlucky.

I'm getting this in Monday (quite cheap for a touch phone in Israel), anyone know if I have to hack/unlock it to add apps from my pc?

Put it where you want it

I always thought this was normal, but after being in a few camps I have hardly seen anyone do this: When I brush my teeth, I put toothpaste on the toothbrush, wet it, fill my mouth with water, spit it out and then brush. I think it makes the toothpaste more foamy :P Also sometimes in the mornings or after midnight when I'm extremely tired and I go to pee, I can hardly stand up so I pee sitting down.

Woah. I just came back from a CL qualifying game. Maccabi Haifa (Israel) vs. Aktobe (Kazakhstan) 15 minutes gone - I felt horrible. Aktobe were leading 0-3! There was no way we were coming back from that! I wanted to go home, but decided to wait till half time. Half time - 2-3!! Amazing, it felt like we could easily score to more goals and win this. 59th minute - 3-3!!!! Celebrations all over the place, but it still wasn't enough for us to go through, we needed one more goal. 62nd minute - Guess what. We're in the lead! 4-3. What a great comeback. It stayed like this till the end and I felt like I have just seen the greatest game in Israeli football (not that we had many great games :P). I feel awesome :)

Did anyone see Getafe's kit? [hide=] [/hide] :wall:

How many rounds are in the CL or Europa League qualifiers before a team reaches the group stages?

Krav Maga, I learn it from my dad and uncle who used to be bodyguards :P
