Not quite sure what OO said, but I’m reasonably confident it was something along the lines of "Spot on!”

To which I wholeheartedly agree. Well said, OO.

Yes indeed, and thankfully so.
Yet to those of us who don't get it (futbal), we can only assume that much of the world's population can best be described as "...professional paint drying monitors who watch soccer to wind down after a hard day's work." - "Get Fuzzy", 7/07/10
