I lost my lunch to see all the "Bushes" sitting there... and applauding when Iraq was announced. "Yeah..Iraq.. we're RICH again, Mommy, and I did what Daddy couldn't do!! Aren't you proud of me Mommy, aren't you???"..

I'm on day 3 of no TV, I'm afraid I would break something if I saw the Bush's wasting tax dollars and sending mixed messages. |club|

there was a big hue and cry over the censorship issues in Olympics. but none of it has turned out to be true. please forgive the Chinese, the ticket sales were so low that they had to hire to watch the games....

Hire or stick a gun in the ppls back and force them to cheer?

Finally the Olympics is over!

I am a sportsjunkie and have produced almost nothing under these weeks. :(

I was forced to watch a bit of it last night. It was hullo hoop and ribbon twilling which was actually somewhat interesting to watch, like the way my cats follow a cat stick toy, after smoking a lot of weed but really I wanted to switch back to the science channel. |potleaf|

I'm thinking that maybe next time I'll watch if they have something more interesting like competitive swimming in a shark filled pool while wearing rollerblades.

It was fun watching the Olympics with my 4 year old because she would cheer on any USA, Russia or Ukrainian team in any sport from swimming to volleyball.
