-

-
Honda debuts for VVV Venlo (soccer/football)… [Japan Times] And they drew with PSV Eindhoven… not bad for a guy who transferred over from my local Nagoya Grampus 8…
Don,You are right there, Mate. In Minneapolis, it was a balmy -25c on Saturday Morning.(that did not factor in wind chill, with the hard wind, the wind chill was -30c) So much for global warming!
