Festive Atmosphere Leads to Historic Upset

GREENSBORO –    It was a festive atmosphere at the Mountain View Country Club last Tuesday evening, as teams representing 10 different countries came together for the annual FIFA World Cup tournament.

Last night was a hot one, after a hot day, and today has dawned with a promise of more. Kiki and I enjoy the breeze of the ceiling fan, she in her chair and I in mine. Out the office window I see blue skies and a few scattered cumuli. But she has far keener ears than mine, and every so often they snap to attention and turn toward the window. Something's afoot southwest of here.
