Dear Gunnar,
This is funny. Luis Figo another soccer player maried a Swedish model Helen
Swedin but it only got him the Emirades for closing his career.
I used Figo and Beckham in a Conference (hi Ido) about Design in the
Mediterranean Region. Figo ilustrated a three legged stool from Alentejo and
Beckham ilustrated Alvar Aalto's three legged stool.
If you want I'll send you the powerpoint I used of list.
Tonight AC Milan vs MU
what a thrill!
120 000 doctoral candidates wasting two hours of their work!
Cheers,
Eduardo

Get over it. Not to be jingoistic but we a superpower of knowing nothing. We
know nothing about things you haven't even imagined knowing nothing about.
Other than Pele and a couple of American women, we could only name one
soccer player so we moved him to Los Angeles just to make sure we'd remember
his name. Have this Ronaldo guy marry a washed up pop star and maybe we'll
buy him, too.
