I'll call you after Brazil.

Hey man, I'm sorry
I missed your call.  I just
got the message.  I think
I was watching Ivory Coast
get dumped from the tournament
on a soft P.K. for the Greeks,
though it may have been when
the Uruguayan striker
bit his Italian opponent,
or a Swiss hat-trick.
Today the United States battle
the Germans at noon.  Insert
a lame WWII reference here.
The game is crucial and I'm sick
with nerves and blind patriotism.
As you can see I've been very busy.
The World Cup ends in 2 
and a half weeks.
I'll call you back then.
