    Nah. Buggerit.

    I worked until 2.00am this morning. I'm just finishing now.

    I'm off to bed. I'll record it.

    It's not as if its real or anything.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Yep - me too. Read a few stories online, but I couldn't even tell you what channel it was on.

    The whole thing is starting to piss me off actually - I read that the Aus Govt is going to throw another 200 million at the London games preparation on the back of a worse than expected medal count. There are people living in abject poverty in the outback and they chuck 200 mil at elite sports!

    Agreed. Best opening ceremony I've ever seen for any event anywhere. So there was 10 seconds of CG in the TV broadcast, who cares. It was bloody good CG too.
    People really need to lay off China, they did a great job and deserved to win the games.
    And if your kids could do the uneven bars like that Chinese kid you'd say they deserved the gold, no matter the age.

    OH and go Russia!!!, clawing their way up to 3rd in the last moments

    I really enjoyed my usual servings of drama, the lows and the highs and the contentious. Spent way too much time looking at the little things that occured like those uni-cycles crashing into the crowd, the little bells littering the ground, the flutter of a skirt to reveal shorts underneath, the low angled camera shots to give the illusion that the chinese are taller than they are ...

    Yao Ming being the tallest Chinaman there .... And trying to spot those hawt Netherland Hocky girls and then there was those Band Camp drummers ... in latex red ...

    They brought out all the old fogies at the end ... was hoping to see if one of the IOC left their zipper down ... all good.
