I dreamt of my gal Maria and a trip to the pizzeria, and, so, I called her up, "Let's eat pizza and watch the World Cup". The minute we walked through the door, I could smell what we had in store. I inhaled deep and slow - garlic and oregano. I looked past my beauty's dazzling eyes, onto a screen of humongous size, and heard the customers cheer as I ordered up a beer. Zero to zero, the clock did tick when I saw that amazing kick, just before the whistle blast, and the game was over at last. Just after that incredible shot, my pizza came and it was hot. I burned my mouth - Maria laughed, and said, "that was just the first half".
