some choice comments at Gizmodo‘s take on the olympics:
I’ve yet to decide if I’m skipping the olympics this year or not.
A country like China shouldn’t of gotten them in the first place and some of the things they’ve been doing to get ready just further illustrate that.
On the other hand I do like swimming.
I agree, i’ll most likely skip the Olympics because of china’s oppression to basic human rights. ALthough, i’ll tivo the USA basketball games and boy do i wish the US win the gold medal count!
Those pictures look amazing. I wish i could have seen the opening ceremony… except for the whole being in China part of it.
and the best of them all :
I see where all the money we owe them is going.
BTW. for great olympic opening photos: the big picture

AG is boycotting the Olympics because of East Timor. As a Jew and someone who knows that Hiltler
used the notion that nobody boycotted the Olympics in Munich as a means by which to continue
his quest, I am taking a stand.
However, I have heard the opening ceremonies this year were amazing.
check out the photos i provided in the last link.
they are disturbingly proto-riefenstahl
You are too funny, kiddo!
