Close, yet so far

Horrendously bad luck today with the video stream - lots of freezing images, and hence, much frustration. I think I'm going to give up for a while and just watch soccer instead, as the US takes on the Czechs. Could have been a double-delight, test cricket on the monitor, while World Cup Soccer plays on the living-room telly, but, I guess it wasn't meant to be - perfection is not so easily gained.
