Updated flash - still no video. And yet I get the ads that run before the livestream. (Eventing is done for the day. I'm hoping I'll be able to watch the replay since it wasn't on tv AT ALL.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The Queen looks exactly like a slightly paler version of the beloved grandmother I still miss every day; she can smile or frown or do anything she wants, I still get unreasonably happy/misty whenever I see her.
Does anyone know where I might find a decent video of the opening ceremonies? We Tivo'd them, but when we played them back they were totally pixellated and jagged and frelled - just that station; everything else was fine. And I just started poking around YouTube, and all the videos I can find are only slightly less wretched. All the other videos look swell, but the opening ceremonies look like they've been recreated in Legos. I don't want an army of Lego Mary Poppinses, I want to see the real thing(s)!
And thanks for the heads-up much earlier, tommyrot. It looks grim.

Man, I tried to send a complaint to NBCSports.com - the thing you type to proof you are human? Won't come up for me so they won't accept my complaint.

Well, they're going to air 1 hour of dressage starting at 1:45 on NBC Sports.
And 1 hour tomorrow.
I hope that's for real. (It came from the USEF website.)

Well that's one way to make your customer service record look good, make it impossible to file complaints.
Dressage is supposed to be airing after table tennis, in about an hour, on NBCS (whatever that is, it's up in the 600s on DirecTV), I don't know if that means anything for streaming or if that is time zone dependent or what. If you can get the streaming to work. How aggravating!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
My cable is back this morning. I'm confused, but watching tennis.

You were supposed to be able to livestream. (Dressage ended for the day about 30 minutes ago.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
The BBC opening for the Olympics had Cumberbatch.
This is really all I care about at the moment.
Well, damn the American coverage. (I was thinking during the opening ceremonies that it was sorely lacking Cumberbatch-ness.)

For reasons.
Ah, that's much better. He's right up there in my top 5 list of voices that make my knees wobbly.

I just discovered that all the copper kettles were the individual petals of the cauldron. Cool. Cause they were random and strange otherwise.

You could watch this with the sound off and not really miss anything.
That's what Tom, smonster, and me did in the bar, with beer, and it was pretty awesome. Much giggling.
