Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It was part of the fireworks...they had 29 giant footsteps going from the older part of the city? area? But there was no way anyone could see the whole walk, since it was blocks per step.

I'm finding the Silverlight player to be surprisingly good (at least compared to most online players -- no, it's not as good as the HD). And the install was pretty painless, assuming the machine is new enough to install it. Anyway, no way around it if you want any of the online video.
This is a very schizoid watch and post. I should probably at least take the laptop into the room with the TV. It just feels so new money, though, you know?
Heh.
I should note--there are worse things than tacky, and new money doesn't even mean you have to be tacky. So give me some.
God, I'm gorging on that bottled lemonade again. When will I learn.
I loved that the printing press was people. And it occurs to me that not only is that a huge-assed screen, it's got people dancing on it.

Dude, in Australia an archer lit it from hundreds of feet away.
My god, what it took to manage that "run!" NICE.
And really, China's ceremony rocked ass, regardless of their politics. Showed the best.
Guam has a judo guy who's over 300 pounds. I want someone to tell him he's out of shape.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall at that moment.
But I have other shows that overlap this...
Time for TiVo magic.
