USWNT beats Germany in Germany. From Melissa:
The crazy phsychic voodoo communication between Solo and Chalupny can probably be

There was a good reaction to the video I posted yesterday of me singing Wilco's I'm Always In
Love, so I decided to upload a few more. I'll be posting them occasionally here, usually with a
