Gryphin, 'weird' obviously has a less derisory and uncomplementary meaning in north america than it does on the more civilised side of the "pond" -In Europe, being "weird" is not a good thing, unless you are Belgian or German...

Mac, the USA football team are not going forward into the harsh unknown, they are going forward to face the Germans who, I might add, will beat them...

then keep in mind that England beat Germany 5-1 not so long ago so it tells you where the USA team really stands in the world..

does anyone speak Japanese by the way? someone called me something that sounds like "uri-na-docha" earlier on this afternoon and I am sure it is not complementary
