On Saturday, I went for a quick swim while I waited for Georgina to come home so we could watch the Argentina game. The pool monitor notices I am wearing an England shirt and says "Did you see Argentina's win yet ?". D'oh! Today I have to avoid the results of both the Brazil game and the France game. No chance :-( I haven’t managed to avoid the results for a single game yet. On Saturday, I went for a quick swim while I waited for Georgina to come home so we could watch the Argentina game.

Though I could see that you'd rather be safe than sorry, I imagined that this wasn't really a problem. Then this morning alone, 3 people came to my office and volunteered the USA-CR result, even before I had the time to say hi. I don't really care, but I can see how frustratring that can be. I like to think the reason I was told, is because people know I don't care. But then, why tell me at all? When I first read your post I wondered who would do such thing.
