All hail fred.

Brazilian soccer players tend to go by one single name. Cafu, Ronaldo, Ronaldino, and so forth (like Pele). Actually, many Brazilians just go by one name.

Anyway, Brazil's second goal today was scored by a player whose one name is: Fred.

This makes me happy.

I was there for 3 months twice over 2 years. I can speak pretty good portuguese, especially after a bit of practice. Brasil is a totally different world. Extremely gorgeous but quite dangerous.

They are quite progressive in many ways. You have a choice to by a car that runs on just gasoline or on alcohol, a mix of ethanol(I think) and gas. Maybe the wave of the future?

Well, sadly (for the US), their "gas" is based on sugar cane, which is much more efficient than corn in terms of turning vegetable matter into fuel.
