...is there anything they can't do? I'll be stocking up plenty of booze for the elf-Meter-Scheissen. Err, Schiessen. And practicing the pronunciation of Muschelfleisch.

Well....
The German box has been moved from left to right, so it's not always in the same place (left for Serbia; right for Ghana; left for England; right for Argentina). Moreover, Paul has gone to the non-German flag (in the case of Serbia) which corresponded with that team's victory.
Yeah.
The fact that I've spent this much effort defending the reputation of a psychic octopus is, it occurs to me, a likely sign of World Cup Fever(TM).

Maybe the fact that the German box stays the same while the other box constantly changes does have a LITTLE influence on this...

In related news, taz reports that "Tintenfische erobern die Nordsee!", but they say that like it's a bad thing. Stupid Berliners. Octopodes are unbelievably awesome. Almost as great as isopods.
