North Korea upset: Brazil

That was easy. All I had to do was add a colon to my originally planned "upset" headline.

Anyhoo, I'm still traveling and handling some important family matters, usually without Internet access, so if the digruntled DPRK peasantry have risen up and overthrown the Pyongyang regime following North Korea's narrow 2-1 loss to Brazil, I probably won't know about it -- much less blog about it -- until next week.

in the meantime, I've been trying to reserve an iPhone 4, but Apple's site keeps saying they can't process my request (at first because I was late on a payment). Another problem is that they don't have white available. Maybe the folks at the Fashion Show Apple Store will shed some light.

Oh, and my mom has finished the copy of the Ling Sisters' book that Lisa Ling sent me -- and reiterated her disappointment (with citations even) that I was "so mean." She has always like Lisa Ling and her work... Maybe more than me!
