Natter 70: Hookers and Blow  

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.

Also, why is Germany dressed in pink and blue?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Four Independent athletes not affiliated with a country! Has that ever happened before? Three from dissolved Netherlands Antilles and one from South Sudan, I think.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, I'm so hungry. I'd better go to bed.

The Iraqi flagbearer is on the verge of tears...

Also, pay attention to the queen's total lack of interest.

I swear, she looked like she was growling at the children singing God Save The Queen. The commentators were all "The Queen is delighted!" okay...

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I think they said "copper kettles."

As the night drags on, she get less tolerant.

Also, why were the opening ceremonies so damned late?

Because that spectacle wouldn't have looked so good in the daylight? I mean, I'm guessing.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Just woke up from a norco nap; the ceremonies haven't started yet here. I'm as shocked as anyone that something I do all the time-- trip while running-- could result in something like this. And I do have to fly later this month! I have no idea what the normal procedure is for cyborgs and metal detectors.

But I'm lucky for various reasons-- Bob is off for summer, my bosses are understanding, and I have good sick leave and a job w/o deadlines.

Ginger, the BBC and the rest of the British media I've read refer to them as copper petals. They become more important towards the end of the ceremony.
