    I was in Chester with my wife and kids this weekend visiting the inlaws. We drove past a housing estate where many of the houses were completely decked out in England flags, covering all available wall space and even over the windows. (At Christmas these are the same houses that have thousands of lights decorating them). I learned never to underestimate how completely over the top some people will go when it comes to football. Words fade as the meanings change, but somehow, it don't bother me.

    Well, when it's all over on saturday, there will be a lot of ex-England junk to be found on ebay. :zzz: We made the buttons on the screen look so good you'll want to lick them. Steve Jobs

      I learned how splents work and that wasps don't like lawn mowers. Also, I almost finished my self-learning Tic Tac Toe program in C#. BW

        One of my favorite Messianic Jewish folk songs, [Clay](http://judahhimango.com/music/messianic/messianic - lamb - clay.mp3)[[^](http://judahhimango.com/music/messianic/messianic - lamb - clay.mp3)], fits your situation pretty well. The lyrics go something like:

        Everybody: I'm happy to say
        That I'm living my life a new way
        'Cause I'm walking with Yeshua (Jesus), in the Spirit
        Day by day

        ...

        Everybody: I'm happy to say
        Yeshua loves you
        And He wants you today
        Life is deeper
        Life is richer
        As He molds you From the clay

        ...

        Like the wind that bends the mighty tree
        Can't see Him but He's there
        That's how He walks beside me
        His love always to share
        The longer I know Him
        The stronger I love Him
        The more I discover He loves me

        The lyrics are set to some nice guitar pickings as well. Great song. :cool:

                  It will all just get stored in the attic until the Euro Championships in 2008. I just wonder how much further they will be going by then? I can imagine people painting their houses white with a red cross. Words fade as the meanings change, but somehow, it don't bother me.
