power's on, but no soccer found anywhere...

Disappointment sets in...the generator came on just in time for game time. I walked all the way down to the boys houses in the rain because I was sure they'd be watching the game, right? WRONG. I guess it doesn't come as a surprise that the younger boys weren't watching - they had just finished their homework and were getting ready for dinner. HOWEVER, even in the house where all of the guys in their early 20's live, no soccer. The television was on, but tuned to a telenovela! Spanish soap operas. REALLY?? What 20+ year old Honduran male watches soap operas instead of the Honduras vs US soccer game??

What a disappointing evening...

Hey Annie,
Hope all is well. Honduras has made the front of the Washington Post almost everyday. I must say your reporting seems far more balanced!
