At what point can I completely place work on the back burner and start only focusing on the World Cup? Do I at least have to wait until the start of next week?

Hey Grubby, let's ALL call in sick during the cup.
They CAN'T fire us. Who would explain the foul-throw, injury-time and why the players wear boots instead of cleats?
We are IN-DE-FREEKING-SPENSIBLE!!!

The Post world map application is really cool - and well put together. One of the 4 billion World Cup info pages out on the intertubes that I'll actually use this month.
