Augury

I was looking at my incoming links and noticed a Japanese link incoming… Not sure if this is spam or not, so don’t go there if you’re unsure about visiting such sites.

The site looks to be a bunch of high school / college girls in Japan at their graduation ceremony. I took screenshots of the pictures on there so you don’t need to go there to see some of them. I have no clue why this blog would be linking to mine, and there’s not really a heck of a lot of text on the page in the first place. I even did a search of the page source and didn’t see any links anywhere pointing to my blog. Very odd.

The girls are pretty darn cute though, and the campus of their school (if I can assume it’s their school) is very beautiful. Is this some kind of new spam trick to have pictures of random Japanese girls to draw in viewers?

On another note, as I’m typing this the US-Italy game is going on. One of the Italian players got red carded after an absolutely brutal elbow to the face of McBride. At that point the US team was a player up, but the Italians were taking dives all over the place and you could tell that the referee was just looking for an excuse to give a US player a red card. That idiot Mastreoni did a cleats-up slidetackle in midfield and hit the Italian player — Usually a yellow card offense but as expected the Referee gave out a red card instead. Completely ridiculous. As I’m typing this the US lost another player, Eddie Pope had gotten a yellow card in the first half and the Referee just called a yellow card on him for a slide tackle that gained him possession of the ball and barely even touched the Italian player. This is just disgusting.

Update: Unbelievable. The referee took back a goal that the US scored (with 9 men) because one US player who wasn’t even involved in the play was offside. Final score 1-1.
