    I'm still amazed that someone somewhere got a fat cheque for designing that logo.

    I'll never see Lisa Simpson in the same light again.

      Me. I would be in favour - but not after the ticketing fiasco. There should have been one global ticket site - and people only allowed to apply for one ticket each.

        The Olympics is just an excuse for diplomats to be wined and dined whilst London is put to huge inconvenience.

          I used to love the Olympics as a kid. But it was just sport then. Trouble was, they always used to make a loss so not many wanted to host them.

          I cannot believe having rugby, tennis and golf in the Olympics. It will be F1 next.

            Lisa?
            I see Sideshow Bob giving Bart a blow job.

            I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

              I just concerned how safe London will be from terrorists during the olympics particulally the tube. I don't feel safe on it now and last week on the jubilee line some nutter got up and started shouting in my carriage 'There is only 1 god I'm kill you all and take you to bliss', thought my time was up

                There is a certain element of risk given the climate we live in today, that make it an ideal target if someone decided that they wanted to make a statement.

                  I shouldn't worry about it my lovely.

                  London will be bristling with surface to air missiles during August.

                    I guess that applies to every big event in London though, or any major western city for that matter.

                      sasguru's getting £20K out of it (£10K after tax) so it's all worthwhile.

                      Also, I think it's really important to find out which country has the fastest black person.
