WC2006: Lost In Translation

SONY CENTER, BERLIN (7:30pm local time) -- In case you're wondering, the German translation for Ivory Coast is "Effenbeinküste." And I'm really happy I'm watching the game here, as the dome is mostly protecting us from the torrential downpour that's just started.

Although maybe not. The wind is starting to take the rain under the dome. And now it's started hailing. A note to all you would-be world travellers out there: A laminated menu can double for an umbrella in a pinch.
