"Culture is the heritage of us all. some may be more interested than others in the treasures of the past, but no one can fail to take a pride in his country's participation in the story of mankind, as represented in carvings, sculpture, music, paintings and the other arts. And there is a personal commitment to this, for no man can really say he is alone: we are all joined through our identity, with the cultures which are part of the mainstream of life"
- Simon Kapwepwe, Zambian Independence Freedom Fighter

"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm" - Winston Churchill

"Try to be the rainbow in someone else's cloud" - Maya Angelou

"Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinion drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition" - Steve Jobs

Les Elephants Are Strong Without Drogba

It is good to know that Cote D'Ivoire can play without Drogba.  Kalou played well and I was a little upset when he was subbed out for Drogba who also put in a good effort despite his injury.  However I thought there was room for the both of them on the field but I guess there was Gervihno to use his pace and create plays as Kalou does. Can't believe  I hope that Les Elephants can improve on this in order to be able to break away and qualify.  Ronaldo was named man of the match, apart from that great goal attempt early on all he did was carry out his usual diving antics. 

Although Brazil won, I was not to impressed by their performance.  They got the job done but are in no way the clear favourites.  I think both Portugal and Cote D'Ivoire can beat them if they keep their heads.  What I loved about that match is the player from Korea know as "The People's Rooney" who actually aspires to be like Drogba! :) Him crying while North Korea's anthem was playing really epitomised what the World Cup means.  


And here is another video that made my day! Lego reenacting what has been dubbed "The Hand of Clod" by British tabloids. Classic!
