I'm talking about any small team out to give it a try!

Some of those Middle Eastern and African robes are stunning. I think I could put up with covering my head if I could do it in scarlet with gold embroidery.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
LOVED the opening ceremony!
The Olympics always make me weepy for various reasons. Already cried 3 times.
1. That damned Coke commerical where they highlight their Olympic sponsorships....both Olympic Games and Special Olympics and juxtaposing the images. Love.
2. The flag bearer for the US. What a better person to hold the flag? Real American Dream in its most idealistic.
3. Watching many of the Middle Eastern countries come in with NO WOMEN because women are no better than dogs to them. AND, hearing about the Afghani woman who is seeking asylum because she had the gall to want to compete in an athletic competition even though she has breasts. Pisses me off and hurts me in a deep way.

Some NBC producer is laughing his butt off--or fired.

How much do I love that bagpipes tend to show up at the most bizarre times during the parade.

You mean like during North Korea?
