Does anyone else think that Bob Costas' hair looks like a piece?
I just thought it was a bad dye job.
It's a real burden being right so often.

I didn't understand the cheerleaders in the high-heeled boots doing the pee-pee dance for two hours during the opening ceremony. What was that about? And what is Beijing going to do with the footprint thing that the athletes were making as they were walking in, with the giant ink pads. Are they going to hang it in the bird's nest or something?

They ended up using them as the barriers. Did you see during the torch part they were all holding hands and keeping the athletes at bay?

The paiting that the footprints made, I thought they said it was going to tour.

I am liking the NBC coverage so far. Fewer human interest and it seems less UScentric so far. And unless I missed it in my fast forwarding, I have not seen the dreaded medal count chart.

I love the medal count chart! It's on my google page!
The pommel horse looks like it was custom built for china -- the base looks all pagoda-style to me.
