The aftermath
18 May 2006Apparently May 18th is the happiest day of the year.
To which I can only say one thing – Is it bollocks!

Is the online presence of Chris Applegate, geek and wannabe polymath.
This is my personal blog, where I blog about anything I like, but more often than not it's to do with digital culture, society, politics and the interaction between all three. All views here are, of course, mine personally and not necessarily those of my employers or associates.
As well as what I blog here, you might be interested in what I have to say on Twitter or my linklog on Delicious.

Sorry, Chris. I find it interesting how Barcelona never seem to beat anyone difficult without that team having a key player sent off – and even then they’re not particularly good. Certainly nowhere near as good as most of the hype surrounding them would suggest.
Arsenal deserved it more, if only for having been Europe’s best footballing side for years now. Henry was right, though – Barca get the decisions they need. As I, and many others, know all too well.
Grrrrrr. At least Ronaldinho was reassuringly disappointing.
