Nippon!

There's a World Cup contest going on over at JD's Cards. And I ended up with Japan. *sigh* I'm going to do about as well as I did in his Olympic contest.

But nevermind that. Time to introduce you to these young fellas. At least most of them. I haven't bought any stickers in almost two weeks, so this is all I have.

this guy is all business...

Monsieu Honda. No relation. I checked.

and my favourite of all... love the tuft of hair up top....

Go Japan! Beat Cameroon! Now excuse me as kickoff is in 3 minutes.

Yeah, I know I phoned this one in, but kickoff is in 3 minutes!

Bulgaria!

In case you have been in a coma this past week and haven't heard, there's an Olympic contest over at JD's Cards. Pick a number, get assigned a country. Root like heck and maybe win a prize.
There's still time to get in, so get going.
Me? I received Bulgaria. I'm thrilled. Quick research shows 218 olympic medals. including 53 Gold.
A little more in depth research shows that only 6 medals, 1 Gold during the colder months. Why couldn't weightlifting be a winter sport?
What could I expect from a country that can't even get their flag right. We all know that this way is the proper way.

Glorious.
